Speech delivered by Minister of Foreign Affairs Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla at the event celebrating Malcolm X's Centennial. New York. September 2025
Malcolm X
I thank the Riverside Church for granting us this opportunity to pay homage to Malcolm X on his One Hundredth birthday, and to do so among friends and comrades.
This church brings warm memories of notable occasions. Cubans and Americans have met in this building in a spirit of dialogue, solidarity and friendship.
The Commander in Chief Fidel Castro Ruz spoke here in the year 2000 and President Miguel Díaz-Canel spoke in September of 2018.
US Military Deployment in the Caribbean Sea Threatens the Region Under Absurd Pretexts
Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The Cuban Government strongly rejects the current deployment of United States military forces in the Caribbean Sea. This dangerous action represents a serious threat and an aggressive show of force against the sovereignty and self-determination of the peoples of Latin America and the Caribbean. Furthermore, it ignores the commitment of the 33 Member States of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States when they proclaimed the region as a Zone of Peace.
