The Labor Party of Mexico today condemned the ominous blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba and alerted the international community to the threat of a military intervention in the Antillean nation.

In this moment of challenges, our solidarity is not only political but human; it is a historical commitment to the dignity and sovereignty of this nation, the political organization asserted, expressing its total support for the government and people of the island.

Through a statement, it warned with deep concern that the siege has escalated to unprecedented levels and energetically condemned the arbitrary prohibition that prevents Cuba from receiving oil supplies to produce electricity.

In the party's view, this constitutes a criminal measure and a crime against humanity that exceeds any parameter of international law.

The organization noted that this strategy seeks to strangle the life of the population and constitutes a direct attack on the country's vital infrastructure.

Furthermore, it alerted the international community to the latent threat of a military intervention or invasion and considered that the warmongering discourse, combined with the energy siege, evidences a desperate attempt to break the will of a people through force and hunger.

It emphasized that the blockade is not an abstract measure but a direct attack on the daily lives of Cuban families; it prevents access to medicines, medical supplies, food, and basic technologies, and deliberately suffocates a people who only seek to decide their own destiny.

The political formation recognized the heroic resistance of the people of the largest of the Antilles, who—despite external aggressions—continue to be a world reference in internationalist solidarity, health, and education.

Cuba is not alone; it has the support of progressive and leftist forces that recognize in its Revolution an example of dignity and resistance, the party stated, calling for its right to live without interference and without the weight of unjust sanctions to be respected.

It exhorted the international community to redouble efforts to insist on the immediate lifting of all measures against the Caribbean nation and the removal of Cuba from Washington's unilateral list of countries allegedly sponsoring terrorism.

For more than six decades, the United States has imposed an economic, commercial, and financial blockade on the island, which was tightened last January through an executive order by U.S. President Donald Trump, resulting in an energy siege.

In the face of this situation, various initiatives have emerged in Mexico to support Cuba from the Government, the Legislature, political parties, and social organizations.
