ICOR declaration: Resolute Solidarity with the Cuban People Against the Sanctions and Threats of U.S. Imperialism
Written by: ICOR on 7 May 2026
On May 1, more than 500,000 people demonstrated in Cuba in front of the U.S. Embassy against the oil embargo imposed by U.S. imperialism since January and handed over six million signatures demanding an end to the embargo—that is roughly two-thirds of the Cuban population.
ICOR stands in wholehearted solidarity with the resistance of the Cuban people. We already published a resolution against the oil embargo in March. The embargo has triggered a humanitarian crisis in Cuba. Power outages and production stoppages are affecting every aspect of people’s lives and undermining healthcare.
In the days leading up to May Day, U.S. President Trump threatened “tougher action” and the “takeover” of Cuba, and on the very same day imposed harsher sanctions targeting officials in the economic, political, and administrative sectors, as well as all international banks and institutions that do business with them.
In light of this, we reaffirm our call to organize solidarity with the Cuban people worldwide!
Long live international solidarity!
Yankees out of Latin America and the Middle East!
No to fascism and imperialist war!
Against capitalist-imperialist barbarism—let us intensify the struggle for socialism!
