Statement of the General Director for U.S. Affairs at the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs Carlos Fernández de Cossío, on the decision of the United States government to include Cuba on the list of states sponsors of terrorism.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned in firm and absolute terms the qualification of Cuba as a country sponsor of terrorism by the government of the United States and the inclusion of our country in a list of the State Department. We insist that it is a calumny, an insult against Cuba and that the Secretary of State deliberately lies when describing Cuba as a country sponsor of terrorism.
