Mexico will be shipping humanitarian aid including food to Cuba this week, President Claudia Sheinbaum announced on Sunday.

Speaking at a public event in the northern state of Sonora, Sheinbaum denied discussing the Caribbean island with US President Donald Trump, who had earlier asked her to suspend oil shipments to Cuba and threatened those selling oil to the country with tariffs. Sheinbaum said her government seeks to "diplomatically solve everything related to the oil shipments to Cuba for humanitarian reasons."
