Updated 6:26 PM EST, February 19, 2026Guillermo Beltrán walked away with two heavy bags on Thursday, each containing an essential haul — rice, beans, amaranth and crackers — complemented by a bottle of oil, large cans of sardines and canned peaches. Every label carried the same simple phrase “Made in Mexico.”
Beltrán, a 70-year-old Cuban father of two, was one of several hundred recipients of Mexican humanitarian assistance, ordered by President Claudia Sheinbaum in support of the island nation as it faces blackouts and severe fuel shortages worsened by a U.S oil embargo.
“I feel very grateful,” said Beltrán. “The Mexican president should be praised to the skies for showing such concern and courage.”

Yes thanks Mexico. And to the US this is what losing power looks like
The Neocons absolutely want Cubans to suffer. Cruelty is the point. We will be lucky if the US doesn’t start bombing “cartels” soon.
Again, Mexico schooling the “powers” that be on compassion, empathy, and human decency! Gracias! Viva Mexico!
