11725 (2026). Teanau Tuiono to the Minister of Foreign Affairs: Has the Government's position on Cuba changed because of the US oil blockade and if so how and if not why not?

Rt Hon Winston Peters: The Government's position on Cuba has not changed following the United States' Oil blockade. New Zealand supports open trade and investment, and we have no trade or economic legislation that restrict or discourage trade or investment to or from Cuba specifically.
