This is an English-language selection of news from, about or related to Cuba. Thanks to the US blockade, most people in the United States cannot go to Cuba, so we need to bring Cuba to as many people in the English-speaking world as possible. CubaNews specializes in English translations from the Cuban media and a wide array of Cuba-related materials. Your interest and active participation are welcomed. Edited with a Cuba-centric perspective: How do Cubans look at things? How are world events related to Cuba? That's the focus of this list.
Don't like a lot of emails? Please choose the DAILY SUMMARY which will bring you links to everything in a single daily message. It comes out about 9 AM Eastern Time each day.
You can also read my translations and opinions on Cuba, and other things, on my personal website.
