Overview
- President Claudia Sheinbaum, who spoke Thursday, denied that Cuba asked Mexico to keep shipment data secret and called the claim false.
- The denial counters a report by El Universal that cited a Cuban diplomatic note and a five-year reservation of the records by Mexico.
- Sheinbaum said fuel exports will continue under commercial and humanitarian schemes without hurting domestic supply, with records under review for public release.
- Pemex has posted invoices it says show Cuba paid in full for fuel transactions.
- The total value remains unclear, with estimates around $1.4 billion to $3 billion and customs reporting no consolidated total, while Mexico also sent more than 814 tons of food by navy ships from Veracruz.
