Copenhagen, January 15th 2021
Statement by Danish Communist Party / Greetings to Cuba:
Stop the madness - Cuba should not be on a terrorist list but have the Nobel Peace Prize
The United States accuses Cuba of supporting terrorism. That's a dirty lie – the reality is that Cuba is a victim of US terrorism.
Danish Communist Party (KP) condemns at the sharpest the Trump-administration's decision to include Cuba in its list of countries that allegedly support terrorism.
As explained yesterday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned in firm and absolute terms the qualification of Cuba as a country sponsor of terrorism by the United States government and the inclusion of our country in a list of the State Department.The reasons are various. In the first place, Cuba is not a sponsor of terrorism. That is known to the President of the United States. That is known to the Secretary of State, who deliberately lied yesterday when making the qualification.
Cuban Ambassador Roger López García held a meeting with the Head of the Communist Party in Denmark (KPID). The meeting was headed by its President, Rikki Carlsson, and the Secretary of Internationals, Bo Moller.
During the meeting, the Cuban diplomat referred to the effects of the international economic crisis, aggravated by Covid-19, and the tightening of the economic, commercial and financial blockade of the United States that, promoted by the Trump Administration, has caused damage for more of 5 billion dollars.
