Peoples Dispatch: “We must remain united for the defense of our peoples”: ALBA stands against Trump The beginning of Donald Trump’s mandate, together with his immigration policy of massive deportations, the new tariff measures he announced on his neighbors, and the quest to keep Cuba diplomatically and economically ostracized, among others, brought ALBA member countries together to discuss the necessary precautions to face this new US administration. Its foreign policy seeks strengthen its hegemony over the entire American continent while also carrying out a zero-tolerance immigration policy towards the millions of Latino workers who sustain the US economy.

Tico Times: Rubio Labels Nicaragua, Venezuela, Cuba as Enemies of Humanity Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused the governments of Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Cuba of being “enemies of humanity” and causing the migration crisis in the region. “These three regimes that exist in Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Cuba are enemies of humanity and have created a migration crisis. If it weren’t for these three regimes, there wouldn’t be a migration crisis in the hemisphere.” Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel called Rubio’s statements “shameless,” while Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yván Gil accused him of having a “pathetic” and “sick obsession” with the three countries.
