The Nuestra América Flotilla is forming an international aid mission targeting Cuba to counter the US embargo, which organizers allege has severely disrupted fuel imports and flight access.

Proponents frame the effort as breaking a decades-long blockade. David Adler explicitly links this mission to his prior involvement with the Sumud Global Flotilla in Gaza. Jeremy Corbyn accused the Trump Administration of continuing a sixty-year siege on the island. Thiago Avila stated the trip must send a message that the Cuban people are not alone. Organizers claim the blockade is lethal, endangering newborns and the elderly.

The discourse is dominated by activist claims detailing the necessity of bypassing US sanctions. There is a clear framing of this action as humanitarian necessity versus US policy, with the stated goal being both material aid and political visibility.
