Communist Party of India (Marxist), Communist Party of India, Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Liberation, Revolutionary Socialist Party, and All India Forward Bloc issued the following joint statement on  February 01, 2026

WE strongly condemn the threats issued by the United States of America against socialist Cuba and denounce its decision to block the shipment of oil. This is against the international law and a violation of the UN Charter.

After its attack on Venezuela and the kidnapping of President Nicolas Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores, the United States is now proceeding against Cuba. It is threatening countries that supply oil to Cuba with sanctions. The US believes that by strangling Cuba economically, it can destabilise the country.

The US has been trying to destabilise Cuba for the last 67 years, using various means, including open terrorist attacks, an economic blockade, and even attempts to assassinate Fidel Castro. All of these have failed. The National Security Strategy 2025 announced by the US President Donald Trump is another attempt by the US to target and destabilise socialist Cuba. The people of Cuba have heroically resisted all earlier attempts, and we are confident that they will resist the current aggression as well.

Cuba is a heroic nation that has consistently stood for international solidarity and assisted countries by sending doctors and medical personnel in times of need. It has readily shared its medical expertise and vaccines with many countries in the Global South. Attacking such a noble country should be considered an attack on humanity itself.

The Indian government should condemn these US threats and reiterate its solidarity with Cuba. The entire international community must stand with Cuba and oppose US aggression.

We urge the people of our country to rally in defence of Cuba’s sovereign rights.
