Beirut January 12, 2021. The Lebanese Communist Party today condemned in a statement the US administration's decision to place Cuba on the list of countries that sponsor terrorism, and saw it as an "aggressive and provocative cheap step by President Trump days before the end of his term.
He noted that "at a time when Cuba trains tens of thousands of doctors, engineers and teachers from the peoples of poor countries for free, and sends its doctors to all parts of the world to heal wounds, restore vision and provide treatment, especially in Latin America and Africa.
He also sent medical and scientific missions to help 39 countries of the world, poor and rich, to face the recent Crown pandemic, in addition to his continued support to all the free people of the world and national liberation movements, which did not attack anyone. and they did not invade any country, nor did they distinguish among its citizens on the basis of color, race, or gender. Rather, that island, located within sight of the shores of the most powerful imperialists, faced and fought and stood alongside the exploited and vulnerable throughout the world, in addition to Palestine, and therefore deserved the title of Island of freedom.
The statement added: "As for real terrorism, it is the organized state terrorism practiced by the imperialist countries, led by the United States of America, against the peoples of the world. Their endless wars have claimed the lives of millions of people in the Earth in recent decades to control resources and strengthen capitalist plunder of its globalized companies.
Terrorism is the imposition of sanctions and the siege of states and peoples, and starving them to subjugate them, including Cuba, which has resisted its arrogance for several decades and has not disappeared. Terrorism is training and financing extremist religious assassination gangs to confront opponents. And terrorism is the creation and support of the Zionist entity with weapons and money to replace the settlers. The place of the Palestinian people is in their land, and terrorism consists of dropping two nuclear bombs on civilians after the end of the war, to test them and show strength. This is the tip of the iceberg of outrageous fascism, and its latest exploits are those that Washington witnessed in terms of the bullying described on its streets and the demonstrations of murders and assaults that accompanied it in an attempt to cancel the election results by the movement right-wing fascist racist.
And he considered that "Cuba is the socialist human antithesis of aggressive North American capitalism, and that is why it constantly awakens its anger and resentment. Cuba is the revolution, the revolution of Castro and Guevara and the fighters against occupation, dependence and domination. Cuba is a Free Cuba, America is the empire of colonialism, exploitation and aggression, and the difference is clear. "He concluded: "All solidarity with Cuba in the face of US terrorist aggression."
