Colombo, May 30, 2024. The Cuban ambassador to Sri Lanka, Andrés Marcelo González Garrido, received at the diplomatic mission in Colombo DMP Dissanayake, secretary of the Sri Lanka-Cuba Friendship Association and Wilfred Jayasinghe, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Sri Lanka and International Relations Officer, also a member of the Association.
During the visit they reiterated their solidarity and friendship with Cuba and condemned the aggressive policy of the United States towards the island with an economic blockade that the Cuban people have suffered for more than 60 years, which has intensified in recent times.
Dissanayake and Jayasinghe spoke out for the United States government to remove Cuba from the unfounded list of states that supposedly sponsor terrorism.
The ambassador thanked the expressions of solidarity that Cuba has always received from the Sri Lanka-Cuba Friendship Association.
