Statement by Mr. Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla, Minister of Foreign Affairs of The Republic of Cuba, during the High-Level Segment of the Fifty Eight Session of the Human Rights Council. Geneva, February 24, 2025.

Mr. President;

The right to life is in serious danger. The United Nations Charter, International Law, and multilateralism are been threatened. There attempts intending to impose economic coercion and political subversion as methods to establish international relations. This is not only immoral but also illegal.

This Council should call more strongly for a just and democratic international order that ensures peace and “the balance of the world”, sovereign equality and the exercise of the right to development by all States, thus ensuring the exercise of all human rights.
