Messages from people in the United States, Cuba and other parts of the world went directly to Biden's Twitter account with the exhortation to eliminate the coercive measures that cause suffering to the Cuban family
WASHINGTON, February 10. — Instead of walls, what is needed today is to build bridges of love, according to the feelings of thousands of people who asked President Joe Biden to lift the United States blockade on Cuba.
The claim was made through social networks during a worldwide tweet the day before that was successful, activist Carlos Lazo, coordinator of the initiative, reported in a video sent to Prensa Latina.
Messages from people in the United States, Cuba and other parts of the world went directly to Biden's Twitter account with the exhortation to eliminate the coercive measures that cause suffering to the Cuban family, he explained.
At the same time, Lazo thanked "all the people of good will who together demand an end to the blockade" and called for the battle to end the economic, commercial and financial siege imposed on the island for more than six decades.
The Cuban professor residing in Seattle, promoter of the Bridges of Love project, said in different public statements that the Democratic leader continues not to fulfill his electoral campaign promises when he stated that, if he reaches the White House, he would reverse the failed policies towards Cuba of his predecessor Donald Trump.
However, more than a year after taking office, he made no progress on issues such as reestablishing family remittances, nor did he reopen the consular services interrupted by Trump.
He has also not allowed US citizens to travel to Cuba and direct flights to the different provinces of the Caribbean nation remain suspended.
This February 3 marked the 60th anniversary of the signing of Executive Order 3447 by then President John F. Kennedy, with which the Democrat made official a blockade policy that had already been applied against the largest of the Antilles since the triumph of the Cuban Revolution on January 1, 1959.
