Vientiane, September 2023. In the face of the vile attack against the Cuban diplomatic headquarters in Washington DC, in the United States, on September 24, Cuba's friends in the Lao People's Democratic Republic join the worldwide clamor denouncing and condemning such a despicable act.
The Declaration of the Laos-Cuba Friendship Association and the Group of Graduates at the island, made the following statement:
"Today the public opinion in Lao PDR was surprised with concern, when a terrorist attack occurred on the night of September 24, 2023 against the dignified diplomatic headquarters of the sister Republic of Cuba, in the capital of the United States, which is also the heart of the US territory.
This cowardly, violent and impotent attack by the ultra-right-wing group of the Cuban mafia in the United States has never been possible in such a powerful country, without the support and collusion of certain anti-Cuban forces of the ruling authorities.
Once again, together with the wave of worldwide repudiation and messages of solidarity from the justice-loving peoples of the world, the Laos-Cuba Friendship Association and the Group of Graduates in Cuba, repeatedly denounce and strongly condemn this terrorist act against the Cuban embassy facilities on United States soil and demand the unconditional cessation of these acts of terrorism.
We must respect the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations and respect the independence and sovereignty of Cuba!
Enough of the hypocritical policy of double standards against terrorism!
We are convinced that the indomitable people of Cuba, with their resolute position of principle of combat against all forms and all types of terrorism, will continue to advance under the glorious banner of the Revolution, without fear of any threat or attacks.
Today the people of Cuba are not alone and count on the solidarity of friends from all parts of the world.
Vientiane September 26, 2023".
