Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez today expressed gratitude to Africa for its permanent support against the blockade maintained by the United States for more than six decades against the island.
In his profile on the social network X, the top representative of Cuban diplomacy highlighted that the XXXVII African Union Summit, recently held in Ethiopia, approved for the fifteenth consecutive time a resolution calling for an end to Washington's siege.
Rodriguez pointed out that this forum also condemned the inclusion of the Antillean nation in the State Department's unilateral list of countries that allegedly sponsor terrorism, and requested its withdrawal.
The text of the organization formed by 55 African states reaffirmed this Sunday its full support to the Resolution approved every year by the UN General Assembly on this issue.
It also regretted the measures implemented by the Government of the United States since November 9, 2017, which reinforce the blockade, and expressed its deep concern over the extension of its extraterritorial nature.
He recognized that the hostile policy of the White House is the main obstacle to the implementation by Cuba of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
