We must speak plainly about what is happening in Cuba.

Cuba is our Caribbean neighbour. Their doctors and teachers have supported countries across our region, including Jamaica. Our histories are connected, and we care deeply about the Cuban people.

Today, many Cubans are facing serious economic hardship, energy shortages, and growing humanitarian challenges. We are sensitive to their struggles. But we must also recognise that a prolonged crisis in Cuba will not remain there. It can impact migration, security, and economic stability across the Caribbean, including Jamaica.

Jamaica stands for democracy, human rights, accountability, and open, market-based economies. I believe lasting stability comes when people have opportunity, a voice in their governance, and the freedom to build and invest.

This moment calls for responsible leadership and constructive dialogue, particularly between Cuba and the United States, to ease tensions and promote reform and stability.

Jamaica will continue to stand in solidarity with the Cuban people while supporting practical steps that lead to stability and shared prosperity for our region.
