Long live Cuba! - SKP declaration against the blockade

The embargo maintained by the United States against Cuba is a cruel crime that ignores the right of a people to build their own future. The trade embargo not only causes suffering to the Cuban people, but also makes it difficult for the country to develop and reach its full potential. In addition to opposing the economic war condemned by the international community, it is important to recognize Cuba's achievements and efforts for well-being and human rights, as well as the country's significant contribution to international aid and solidarity work. The district organization of the SKP (Suomen Kommunistinen Puolue) in Uusimaa shows its permanent support for the Cuban people and socialism.
