Global call to remove Cuba from the list of co-sponsors of terrorism

Vientiane August 11, 2023. Friends in Laos joined the urgent call to gather one million signatures, aimed at putting pressure on the United States government to review its arbitrary decision to remove Cuba from the list of state co-sponsors of terrorism.

This has been a weapon used to justify the cruel blockade imposed on the island for more than 60 years. The statement even highlights that in the midst of the pandemic, the Trump administration tried to further damage the Cuban economy by reinforcing not only the blockade with more than 243 new sanctions, but also by including Cuba on that spurious list, making it more difficult for this country transact using international banking systems and ultimately purchase necessary goods on the international market, such as fuel, food, construction supplies, hygiene products and medicines.
