| Title | Cuba oil crisis: Mexico walks tightrope between support and US pressure | Source | France 24 - World News |
| Description | Mexico is walking a tightrope and balancing its historical support for Cuba against the threat of looming US tariffs, as Washington continues to choke off oil and fuel from the communist Caribbean island nation. Havana imported sixty percent of the country's energy supplies, mainly from Venezuela and Mexico, but the former is now taking its line from Washington after the abduction of its leader in January by the US military, and Mexico caved shortly after to Washington's pressure over a tight oil embargo, aimed at forcing Cuba to make economic and political reforms - as the situation for ordinary Cubans worsens by the day. | ||
