Categorical rejection of unfounded allegations of interference in US elections
Communiqué issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cuba
Towards the end of the month of July this year, some articles published by the newspaper The Miami Herald and others of the McClatchy news publishing company, to which it belongs, started to launch a new slanderous campaign against Cuba. In order to prop up their allegations, they have made reference to the existence of anonymous intelligence, a common practice resorted to by the aforementioned media group and their editors when lies become the essence of their reports.
Such allegations claim that Cuba is making efforts to influence electoral campaigns in the US state of Florida.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs rejects, in the strongest possible terms, such allegations. It likewise deplores the fact that the US government, its State Department and intelligence agencies have not disqualified the direct reference to alleged government agencies whose authority seem to support those slanderous articles.
