"By MICHELLE L. PRICE WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an executive order that would impose a tariff on any goods from countries that sell or provide oil to Cuba, a move that puts pressure on Mexico. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said this week that her government had at least temporarily stopped oil shipments to Cuba, but said it was a sovereign decision not made under pressure from the United States."
"Trump has been squeezing Mexico to distance itself from the Cuban government. This is a breaking news story. More information will be added as it comes in."
President Donald Trump signed an executive order to impose tariffs on goods from any country that sells or provides oil to Cuba, targeting nations that maintain energy ties with Havana. The measure increases pressure on Mexico. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said her government at least temporarily stopped oil shipments to Cuba and described the action as a sovereign decision not made under U.S. pressure. The move follows sustained U.S. efforts to push Mexico to distance itself from the Cuban government. Additional details and developments are expected as more information becomes available.
