Last Tuesday, Oakland became the fifth U.S. city this year to pass a resolution supporting medical and scientific collaboration between Cuba and the United States.
Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The Government of the Republic of Cuba rejects the mendacious allegations being spread by the United States Government concerning an alleged involvement of Cuba in the military conflict in Ukraine. This is a slanderous accusation first launched in 2023 by certain media outlets without offering any evidence or substantiation of any kind, and clearly serving an assigned purpose.
Thank you to all organizers and thanks for having us
In terms of Fidel Castro’s legacy, there is no doubt that his ideas, speeches, works and reflections are the main asset, the cornerstone of the Cuban foreign policy in general, but particularly in terms of our bilateral ties with the United States.
Let´s remember Fidel´s visits to the United States before the Revolution and immediately after, in April 1959. We treasure at the Embassy many pictures of those moments.
Reverend Jim Winkler, President and General Secretary of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA, adressed a letter to the Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo to express concern that Cuba has been and continues to be listed on the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom’s “Special Watch List”.
