Condemn the blockade against Cuba at the “3rd International Conference for Peace and Social Justice in a Period of Multiple Crises” in Nicosia, Cyprus. 

Nicosia, Cyprus, June 17, 2026. — With a message from the Communist Party of Cuba, reiterating “the condemnation and warning about the danger posed to the Latin American and Caribbean region, and particularly to the island, by the aggressive policy of Yankee imperialism, as well as its growing and open threat of a direct military aggression against the island", the call and renewed condemnation of millions of Cubans were heard in Nicosia today, addressing the world. 

As part of the working sessions of the 3rd International Conference “Peace and Social Justice in a Time of Multiple Crises” by the Alexis Tsipras Institute (INAT), in collaboration with the Promitheas Research Institute (INEP), the voice of Cuba was heard this morning in the Cypriot capital through a message delivered by Emilio Lozada García, head of the Department of International Relations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba.

Presented by Vera Policarpou, head of International Relations and European Policy of the Central Committee of the AKEL Party, during the segment “Evolution of the Situation Worldwide,” Lozada García’s message delved into the precise and direct condemnation of the economic, commercial, financial, and energy blockade imposed by the United States government; the same government “that in an arbitrary and politically manipulated way, has defined our country as an unusual and extraordinary threat to its national security,' with the threat of a direct military aggression, 'which would constitute a violation of the United Nations Charter, International Law, and the principles that proclaim Latin America and the Caribbean as a zone of peace.'
