Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cuba.
The threat of direct aggression by the United States against the Islamic Republic of Iran, encouraged by the genocidal government of Israel, became a reality after the cowardly bombings of the nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
Cuba strongly condemns these serious acts, which constitute a dangerous escalation of the conflict in the Middle East and a flagrant violation of the UN Charter and international law.
During the Security Council open debate on poverty, underdevelopment, and conflict, Cuban Deputy Foreign Minister Carlos Fernández de Cossío reaffirmed Cuba's commitment to peace, social justice, and sustainable development.
He strongly condemned the Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people and the recent attacks against the Islamic Republic of Iran. He described these attacks as serious violations of international law and the United Nations Charter, with the complicity of the United States government.
Ambassador Ernesto Soberón Guzmán, Permanent Representative of the Republic of Cuba to the United Nations, spoke this Tuesday during the resumed session of the Tenth Emergency Special Session of the UN General Assembly dedicated to the question of Palestine.
In his speech, Guzmán condemned the most recent use of the veto by the U.S. government in the Security Council. He said this prevents progress toward a peaceful and sustainable solution to the conflict and hinders efforts to ensure the protection of the Palestinian civilian population.
