U.S. starts talks with Cuba, cuts oil from Venezuela/Mexico, imposes tariffs to pressure Cuba into negotiations.
President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that the U.S. is beginning talks with Cuba while cutting off oil supplies from Venezuela and Mexico to pressure the island into negotiations.
He signed an executive order imposing tariffs on goods from nations supplying oil to Cuba, targeting Mexico, which had become a key provider.
Trump claimed the Cuban government is nearing collapse and suggested the U.S. would be “kind” if Cuba seeks a deal.
The move follows the January capture of Venezuela’s former president, Nicolás Maduro, and marks a significant escalation in U.S. pressure on Cuba amid broader regional strategy.
Mexican officials warned the policy could trigger a humanitarian crisis.
