AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Cuba Under New Pressure: Hapag-Lloyd and CMA CGM have suspended Cuba cargo bookings after a U.S. executive order that threatens asset seizures for firms touching Cuba’s economy—raising the stakes for an island already facing fuel and power shortages. Venezuela Corruption Case: Alex Saab, a longtime Maduro ally, appeared in a Miami court charged with money laundering tied to bribery schemes around CLAP food contracts, as U.S. sanctions and political purges continue to reshape Venezuela’s elite networks. Bolivia Protests Escalate: Anti-government demonstrations in La Paz have turned violent again, with riot police using tear gas and protesters blocking roads amid inflation and shortages; bishops are urging “humanitarian pauses.” Trade & Food Relief: A Mexico-Uruguay humanitarian ship docked in Havana with hygiene items and 1,700 tons of food. Regional Watch: China agreed to boost U.S. beef and poultry purchases, while the G7 met in Paris focused on the Strait of Hormuz’s economic shock.
