Cubamistad condemns the recent escalation in the 25 years of regime change operations by the US government against the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela. We condemn the US targeted bombing raid, that is so called “Operation Absolute Resolve”, and the illegal abduction of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores. This military intervention and abduction violates Venezuela’s sovereignty, violates all international law, and violates the Charter of the United Nations. Further, Cubamistad is alarmed by the US threats and growing risk to nations neighbouring Venezuela.  The mission of Cubamistad is to promote peace, respect, and deeper understanding between the citizens

A new campaign by the Los Angeles-based U.S. Hands Off Cuba Committee is demanding that Cubans be allowed to compete in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.

The U.S. Embassy in Havana, under Marco Rubio’s State Department, has refused to issue visas for numerous Cuban athletes and coaches, which has stopped them from competing in pre-Olympic qualifying events.
