"We are aware of the seriousness of the situation and are in contact with humanitarian partners in Cuba, "said Community sources, who recalled that in 2026 the EU allocated EUR 123 million to Latin America and the Caribbean.
Specifically, EUR 23 million will be allocated to theCaribbean to address the humanitarian impact of the escalation of armed violence in Haiti , helping to meet the most pressing needs of the affected population, and another EUR 4 million will go to the rest of the Caribbean, with particular attention to the humanitarian situation in Cuba and the Dominican Republic.
To this aid must be added the aid provided by the Community bloc to Cuba, at the end of last year, to repair the damage caused by Hurricane Melissa after sending some EUR 2 million to the country\u00A0asmoz , to which other resources were added to the neighbouring islands.
