Press Release: Cuba demands the unilateral and unconditional lifting of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States Government.
New York, 31 October 2017. The blockade of the United States against Cuba was unilaterally imposed 55 years ago. More than 70 percent of the current Cuban population has been born and raised under the implementation of this policy, which hinders Cuba's economic development and constitutes a flagrant violation of the human rights of the Cuban people.
