The Lebanese-Cuban Friendship Association ratifies its solidarity and support for the Cuban people for the elimination of the blockade.
The President of the Lebanon-Cuba Association, Maurice Nohra, was received at the Cuban Embassy in Beirut by Ambassador Jorge León Cruz, Chargé d'Affaires a.i., who offered him a cordial welcome and held a fruitful meeting.
The occasion was propitious to review current national and regional issues in Lebanon and the new normality in Cuba with the control of the pandemic due to the effectiveness of Cuban vaccines, which constitutes a new victory, despite the intensification of the US blockade.
It was also clear that the empire was unable to silence the voice of the island at the Summit of the Americas, where the US administration's policy of excluding it was condemned and where broad expressions of solidarity with Cuba were received.
During the fraternal meeting, both sides congratulated each other and called for further strengthening of the positive ties between the friendship association and the embassy, and it was possible to note the solidarity and support in the struggle of the Cuban people against the economic, financial and commercial blockade imposed by the US on Cuba for more than 60 years.
