Your Excellencies,
Esteemed President Ilham Aliyev,
Distinguished Heads of State and Government,
I thank Azerbaijan, the Chairman of the Non-Aligned Movement, for calling to this meeting to exchange on the urgent and needed efforts which allow us to face COVID-19.
Today May Day the young Cuban-Irish Niall, Sophie and Cathal Bastible Díaz got up a little earlier, they wanted to join this unique parade, today the Cuban people will not fill the Squares as has been the custom in the last 60 years, however, each house will be a Plaza. The Cuban family in Ireland also demands an end to the blockade and joins the Workers' party.
Good afternoon:
As the Ministry of Foreign Affairs timely informed, around 2 o’clock today, that is, in the early hours in the morning of today, Thursday, April 30, 2020, a terrorist attack was perpetrated against the embassy of the Republic of Cuba to the United States in Washington. An unidentified individual shot at the building of the Cuban embassy in the US using an assault rifle.
As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to spread over the whole planet causing enormous human pain and loses, it tragically confirms the existence of two different approaches: one insisting to put profits and imposition of global control above public health and the wellbeing of their own people, and a different one putting people, their health and wellbeing, above all other interests.
