A caravan of automobiles adorned with Cuban flags traveled today through the streets of Brazil’s capital in a renewed demonstration of solidarity with the island and a rejection of the blockade imposed by the United States.

The Carreata por Cuba (Car Caravan for Cuba) gathered in the area between the SESI Lab interactive museum and the National Library of Brasilia. From there, it departed on a route that passed through part of the National Esplanade, the North Axis, and the City Park.

This initiative, which included the participation of approximately thirty vehicles, concluded near the Television Tower, one of the city's iconic landmarks. The action involved individuals in solidarity with the Caribbean nation, Cuban residents in Brazil, and members of social organizations, forming part of the numerous displays of support taking place both in Brazil and internationally.

The objective of this activity was to reiterate the condemnation of the economic, commercial, and financial siege imposed by the United States against the island more than 65 years ago, which was intensified under President Donald Trump through measures such as an energy blockade.

The Cuban Ambassador to Brazil, Víctor Cairo, expressed his gratitude to compatriots residing in the country and to those in solidarity with the Antillean nation for this latest gesture of support. According to the diplomat, events such as the Carreata will be replicated across various cities in the South American giant.

On April 12, this capital also hosted a bicycle rally in support of the island, which moved through the northern thoroughfares of Brasilia amidst constant shouts of "Down with the blockade!" and "Long live Cuba!"—expressions that were joined by applause, Cuban flags, and banners defending the sovereignty of peoples.

The historic solidarity of activists and political and social organizations with the Antillean territory has multiplied in recent months, with calls for concrete aid actions amidst the difficult conditions the island faces due to the blockade.

This weekend, within the framework of the 8th National Congress of the Workers' Party (PT), that political force approved a motion condemning the U.S. siege, labeling it a measure that is “criminal, inhumane, and incompatible with international law.”

Furthermore, the document formalizes the PT's support for the "Solar Panels for Cuba" campaign, an initiative organized by solidarity entities, social movements, unions, and parliamentarians with the goal of raising funds for the installation of photovoltaic systems in intensive care units of Cuban hospitals.
