PCP demands that the Government use diplomatic capacity to help Cuba

SOL5 September 2026 at 20:57

The PCP demanded that the Portuguese Government use its diplomatic capacity to help Cuba. The party considers that Portugal should intervene with international authorities to resolve the situation affecting the island.

The Secretary-General of the PCP was the figure who made this demand publicly, pointing to the need for diplomatic action on the part of Portugal.

According to the communist leader, there are seven thousand containers with essential goods, medicines and food that are blocked in various ports spread across the world and cannot enter Cuba.

The party uses this data to justify the call for diplomatic intervention, arguing that the Portuguese Government has the capacity to act on this issue that affects the Cuban population.

Apple and Google Comply with Donald Trump's Request and Change Lake Ontario to Lake America

Apple and Google altered the name of Lake Ontario to "Lake America" on their digital maps, at the request of President Donald Trump, but only for users in the United States, while users in Canada continue to see the original name. The change was made following an executive order signed by Trump on August 27, which came in the context of the trade dispute between the United States and Canada, which led to the imposition of mutual high tariffs. The executive order argues that the United States is the main protector of the Great Lakes, investing nearly four billion dollars in the last decade in protecting the ecosystem. Google Maps confirmed that it will follow the practice of using names from the United States Geographic Names Information System, while other services such as MapQuest refused to make the change. Apple and Google had previously also changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America.
