The Cuban Revolution is under attack. The current situation, caused by the US’s unparalleled escalation, is worse than anything the Cuban people and government have endured since 1959.
The January 3rd, 2026, unprecedented use of combined military and sophisticated communicational weaponry against Venezuela, kidnapping its president, Nicolas Maduro, and national assembly Deputy Celia Flores, dealt a serious blow to the country’s multifaceted cooperation with Cuba. This was followed by the January 29th cruel and genocidal decision by President Trump to sanction all vessels and countries that supply fuel in any way, shape, or form to Cuba.
This special webinar will assess the prospects for the Cuban Revolution at this critical moment. We will also highlight the support being provided by Cuba’s allies – and the work being done in countries such as Britain, the US, and Canada – with a view to building the broadest possible solidarity with Cuba.
