From several countries such as Venezuela, Mexico, Panama, Argentina and Haiti, organizations of Cubans living in those countries and friends of the island have expressed their energetic rejection of the blockade.
Through letters sent to the U.S. ambassadors in those countries and to President Joe Biden, they asked the U.S. government to eliminate the economic sanctions against Cuba.
The letters express Cuba's imminent need to recover after the passage of Hurricane Ian, for which it needs resources that the blockade prevents or makes more expensive.
The Cubans demanded the exclusion of their country from the list of countries sponsoring terrorism, an unfounded decision that harms the Cuban people.
The letters also express the desire of Cuban nationals for the prompt normalization of bilateral relations.
