Cuba will overcome the imperialist offensive
Statement of the Revolutionary Government
US President Donald Trump lashes out against Cuba from day one and without pretext. The decision to reinstate the tough economic warfare measures against Cuba, which his predecessor removed just days before, proves the aggressiveness of US imperialism against the sovereignty, peace and welfare of the Cuban people. These measures comprise the inclusion of our country, once again, in the arbitrary list of States that allegedly sponsor terrorism, a designation that shows an absolute disregard for the truth.
Cuba and Canada strengthen inter-parliamentary relations
Member of the Political Bureau of the Party Central Committee Esteban Lazo Hernández, president of the National Assembly of People's Power (ANPP) and of the Council of State, exchanged on Wednesday, at the National Capitol, with members of the Canada-Cuba Parliamentary Friendship Group (GPA) delegation visiting our country.
We ratify the will to expand and strengthen inter-parliamentary relations, said the head of the supreme organ of state power, while greeting the Canadian legislators.
In the spirit of the Ordinary Jubilee of the Year 2025, the Cuban Government releases persons who are serving prison sentences.
Declaration of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba
As part of the close and fluid relations with the Vatican, the Government of Cuba has remained in touch with Pope Francis and his representatives and, as has occurred in the past, has kept His Holiness informed about the processes of review of the convictions and the release on imprisoned person, a practice that is common in our judicial system and has characterized the humanitarian record of the Revolution.
The United States takes steps in the right direction, but the blockade remains in force.
