Sandro Castro has once again stirred up controversy on social media by mocking the ship from the solidarity convoy that recently arrived in Cuba from Mexico, amid the country's ongoing crisis.
The grandson of Fidel Castro took to Instagram to share a story, sarcastically commenting on the ship's condition, which he implicitly described as rundown, and jokingly offered to "donate" paint to improve its appearance.
In a separate post, he included an image of the ship, acknowledging the gesture of aid but continuing with his sardonic remarks: "It's not about the makeup or clothes, it's about the attitude... thank you sincerely for the solidarity in helping Cuba... but it's hard not to poke fun at the ship."
Dubbed "Granma 2" by regime supporters, the vessel was carrying members of the "Nuestra América" convoy, a group of activists and organizations aligned with the Cuban government that have been bringing supplies to the island.
Sandro Castro's posts mock the initiative, contrasting sharply with the official rhetoric that emphasizes international solidarity amid severe shortages of food, medicine, and fuel.
True to his family name, Sandro Castro doesn't shy away from ridiculing everything on social media, a stance that would likely bring legal consequences or sanctions to other young Cubans.
