Beirut, January 14, 2021. A delegation from the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine headed by Ali Faysal, visited the Cuban Ambassador to Lebanon, His Excellency Alexander Pellicer Moraga.
The Democratic Front delegation affirmed its support for Cuba in the face of repeated provocations by the US administration, the latest of which is the decision to qualify Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism, "in a repeated colonial effort to subdue Cuba, which it still stands firm in the face of the unjust US blockade The Front condemned this decision and demonstrated the solidarity of the Palestinian people with Cuba, which continues to provide all kinds of political and material support to Palestine.
The delegation called for cooperation between all forces affected by the US hegemonic policy over the world, and to confront the logic of colonialism and aggression that emerged in the policies of the late Trump administration and his group of advisers, who defend the extremism and aggression, considering that the continuation of the United States' policy of siege and aggression aims to obstruct the path of prosperity and progress that Cuba has registered in recent years.
The delegation addressed the general situation in Palestine and highlighted the determination of the Palestinian people to confront the Netanyahu and Trump agreement, which they described as a direct aggression against the rights of the Palestinians.
This requires the acceleration of the implementation of the decisions of the Palestinian national bodies and frameworks, especially regarding the confrontation of the occupation and the dissolution of the Oslo Accords and the withdrawal of recognition of Israel. They also stressed the importance of continuing with the Palestinian strategy to restore national unity and work to achieve association and activate popular resistance in all its forms to end the occupation and the establishment of an independent state with pre-1967 borders, with Jerusalem as its capital.
For his part, the Cuban ambassador affirmed Cuba's support for the Palestinian people and their fight for their national rights, calling on all forces of freedom against the policies of the United States and Israel to support the Palestinian people to thwart the American project, which constitutes an aggression against international peace and stability.
