China Pledges Unconditional Support for Cuba Against Sanctions and External Interference

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi told his Cuban counterpart in Beijing on November 11, 2026 that China will firmly support Cuba in safeguarding its national sovereignty and opposing sanctions, blockades, and external interference, according to China's state-run Xinhua news agency. Wang stated the commitment would hold "no matter how circumstances evolve," signaling an open-ended and unconditional alignment with Havana.

Wang also said China is willing to strengthen coordination with Cuba in multilateral forums and that the two countries would jointly oppose what he called power politics and unilateral actions, a formulation Beijing typically uses in reference to U.S. foreign policy.
