About

Granma 2.0, also known as the Convoy Nuestra América, is a humanitarian initiative focused on providing aid to Cuba. The organization is critical of the US embargo, particularly the oil blockade, which has exacerbated Cuba's energy crisis. Granma 2.0 is newsworthy due to its recent successful delivery of humanitarian aid to Havana. The flagship vessel of the flotilla arrived in Havana after a four-day voyage, carrying 14 tons of food and medicine, 73 solar panels, and a dozen bicycles. This delivery represents the culmination of a significant effort to collect and transport aid to alleviate the suffering of the Cuban population, which is facing severe shortages due to the energy crisis. The initiative highlights the ongoing debate surrounding the US embargo and the role of international solidarity in addressing humanitarian needs in Cuba.
