Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
For months, the U.S. Secretary of State led an aggressive campaign aimed at installing a prominent member on Washington’s payroll—an outspoken supporter of the blockade and aggression against Cuba—as an allegedly impartial human rights expert.
From June 20 to 22, the 14th edition of the Cubaneando International Festival took place in the city of Montreal in an atmosphere of joy and celebration of our roots. At the opening ceremony, Consul Angel Torres spoke with Josué Corvil, City Councilor for the Saint-Michel district, and they agreed that the Festival is a showcase for celebrating our identities.
The Consulate General of Cuba, along with other Latin American consulates accredited in Toronto, participated in the Latin Fair to highlight Cuban culture, Hispanic heritage, and cultural diversity in Canada.
As usual, members of the Cuban community spread their joy to many of the attendees, who, despite the high temperatures, joined in the dancing and participated in our traditional games.
