    It is not a blockade. Idiots. So if there is no blockade, it is not “amid US blockade”.

    A blockade is a specific legal thing, an act of war. Where you stop all ships using military means. The US is using legal means to make it very expensive for countries like Mexico to send oil, which is not a blockade.

    So it is not surprising that the US will not stop these Russian ships.

      Apparently it is a blockade

      The blockade, which came into effect following the US abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in January, has been decried by Cuban officials as “cruel”

        The article lies, as I clearly stated above. Citing the article, without any further proof than the authority of the article itself, does not disprove that…

        If it was a blockade, then why do the Russian ships go though?

        Where is the US declaration of blockade? There isn’t one. Because there is no blockade.
