Statements by President Miguel Díaz-Canel to the Cuban press that covers the 73rd session of the United Nations.
The President traveled directly to the Permanent Mission of Cuba in this city, in Manhattan, and was emphatic in stating: "We come to bring a message of peace."
The Minister of Culture and Sports, John King, presided along with the deputy minister Deborah Payne, a very special act of remembrance and tribute to the victims of the sabotage against the Cubana airplane that took place in October 1976 on the coasts off Barbados, accompanied by civil aviation authorities at the time and the board of the Museum and Historical Society of Barbados. The Minister highlighted the cruelty of that terrorism act and its anti-human dimension, which served to unite our governments and peoples, because the generous solidarity of the Cuban people with the Caribbean was rewarded at that time with the strong reaction of the region in defense of our dignity.
