Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said her administration will send humanitarian aid to Cuba but hold off on oil shipments due to an order from President Donald Trump imposing tariffs on countries who do.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said the pause was part of general fluctuations in oil supplies and that it was a "sovereign decision" not made under pressure from the United States.

Mexico and Cuba share a history as Spanish colonies, but their relationship with one another has had its ups and downs through the years.

President Trump says the U.S. is beginning to talk with Cuban leaders, after having threatened Havana in recent weeks.
