AKP Phnom Penh, 02 March, 2026 —

Mauritius President Dharambeer Gokhool reaffirmed on Friday his support for Cuba in the face of the US blockade upon receiving the credentials from Cuban Ambassador Susellys Perez Mesa.
Gokhool stated that Cuba can count, as it has until now, on Mauritius’s support against the sanctions.

Perez Mesa updated the president on the situation arising from the executive order issued by US President Donald Trump to tighten the economic, commercial, and financial siege of more than six decades, with an attempt to block fuel supplies.

The ambassador also expressed her confidence that Port Louis will join the international condemnation of these kinds of actions, which violate International Law and the United Nations Charter and are a threat to all sovereign countries.

During the ceremony, Gokhool and Perez Mesa discussed potential areas of cooperation and joint initiatives, as well as their shared desire to strengthen relations, particularly in the context of this year’s 50th anniversary of bilateral ties.
