The Central Executive Committee of the Workers’ Party of Ireland, at its meeting of Saturday 3rd October 2020, unanimously and enthusiastically endorsed the nomination of Cuba’s Henry Reeve Medical Brigade for the Nobel Peace Prize of 2021.
Kerry, October 1, 2020, A large group of Irish friends have set out on a hike to climb Carrauntoohil Mountain, the highest on the island. This pilgrimage is part of a program of Walks for Cuba and against the blockade, which will conclude with a 60-kilometer march to the center of Dublin, a one-kilometer march for each year of criminal sanctions aimed at economically asphyxiating the people of Cuba.
The Cuban people and the international community are aware of the dishonest campaign that the government of the United States has launched since 2019 to discredit Cuba’s international medical cooperation; exert pressure on the governments that have asked for it and deprive peoples of these health services.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba denounces that, as part of that offensive, the US government has unleashed an array of pressures and blackmails against the Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO).
The Sinn Féin Assembly team has nominated the ‘Henry Reeve International Medical Brigade’ for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize.
Sinn Féin MLA John O’Dowd said:
“Sinn Féin is honoured to nominate the Henry Reeve International Medical Brigade for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize.
