Mexico pauses oil shipments to Cuba under pressure from Trump tariff threats

Mexico has temporarily stopped sending oil to Cuba. The decision came after President Donald Trump threatened to impose tariffs on Mexican states involved in the shipments.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed the pause, saying the state oil company Pemex makes its own decisions. The shipments had made Mexico Cuba's largest oil supplier, replacing Venezuela. The move highlights the diplomatic pressure Mexico faces from the U.S. over its relationship with Cuba.
