Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

According to U.S. official media reports, on 15 May 2024, the country’s State Secretary submitted to the Congress one more of the arbitrary reports that normally describe countries without any international mandate or recorgnition. This time, he listed four countries who allegedly “do not fully cooperate with the United States antiterrorist efforts for the 2023 calendar year.” As opposed to what has happened in recent years, the list does not slanderously include Cuba among such countries.

U.S. policy toward Cuba: "Morally unacceptable and antithetical to our faith".

A score of U.S.-based Protestant church bodies urged President Joe Biden to make substantial changes in bilateral relations with Cuba, including its removal from the State Department's List of State Sponsors of Terrorism (LEPT).

In a letter dated May 9, 12 organizations representing different religious denominations and 8 faith-based institutions point out that the current U.S. policy of strangling Cuban society with an economic blockade to force it to overthrow its government is morally unacceptable and contrary to their faith; as well as to basic human rights principles.
