Pretoria, June 20, 2021.- Multiple South African organizations are immersed in the organization of a massive motorcade, which will tour the streets of the city of Pretoria next Sunday, June 20, to demand the end of the criminal blockade imposed by the United States government against Cuba.
As part of the event, the organizations participating in the caravan have prepared a document rejecting the blockade, which they will deliver to the United States Embassy in South Africa.
Among the participants in the caravan will be the members of the Friends of Cuba Society (FOCUS), the African National Congress (ANC), the South African Communist Party (SACP), the Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU), the , Cuban Alumni Association of South Africa (CAASA), the Association of Cubans Residents in South Africa (ACRSA), the National Association of Democratic Lawyers (NADEL), The National Education, Health and Allied Workers´ Union (NEHAWU), The National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), The Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union (POPCRU), the African National Congress Women´s League (ANCWL), among others.
The Cuban people are grateful for the invariable solidarity of South Africa in the fight against the blockade, which takes on greater relevance in times of pandemic and the permanence of the measures that reinforce this criminal and unjustified economic siege.
