The second solidarity dinner with Cuba, held in Saint Andrews, Grenada, brought together political leaders, diplomatic representatives, and community figures. On this occasion, Malachy Dottin, president of the Committee of Graduates, and distinguished lawyer Ruggles Ferguson delivered remarks reaffirming Grenada’s commitment to the cause of the Greater of the Antilles in the face of the blockade and coercive measures imposed by the United States.
In his address, Dottin emphasized that Cuba has been a fundamental ally in the training of Grenadian professionals, and that this legacy compels continued political and human support for the Island. He stressed that solidarity is not merely a symbolic gesture, but a historical responsibility that strengthens regional unity.
For his part, Ferguson focused his message on denouncing the U.S. blockade and the need to resist coercive measures. He pointed out that hostility against Cuba constitutes a violation of international law and that Grenadian solidarity must be firmly expressed in all spaces, as part of a historic commitment to the Island.
The words of Dottin and Ferguson, leaders of solidarity initiatives with Cuba, reaffirmed that the Cuban cause remains a central axis of regional unity and a historic commitment that transcends generations, calling Grenadian society to maintain its political, human, and moral support for the Island.
The activity was principally organized by the President of the Grenadian Senate, Dessima Williams, whose leadership highlighted the support that Grenadian political leaders continue to extend to the Cuban cause.
