Short version of a statement issued by the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs on June 1, 2020
The United States has placed Cuba on its list of countries that will not cooperate to stop terrorism. The reason is that Cuba will not extradite members of the National Liberation Army, ELN, in Cuba.
The truth is very different from what the United States government claims.
The members of the ELN in question are in Cuba to negotiate a peace agreement with the Colombian government.
Cubans in Denmark condemn terrorism against Cuba.
In the course of this year, we have witnessed the adoption of new sanctions and shameful maneuvers by the United States Government against Cuba.
The group of Cubans residing in Denmark express our condemn against the decision of the United States Department of State to include the Republic of Cuba in the list of nations that supposedly do not contribute to the US interests in the fight against terrorism.
This policy once again accentuates the continuing displays of hostility from the Donald Trump administration.
Resolution approved by the Dano-Cuban Friendship Association:
The Cuban medical brigade that participated in the battle against COVID-19 must be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
The Dano-Cuban Friendship Association supports the proposal to nominate Cuban doctors and nurses participating in the international missions against the COVID 19 pandemic for the Nobel Peace Prize. It would be the right choice.
Cuba has sent more than 2000 doctors and nurses to 24 countries in Europe, Africa and Latin America to assist in the battle against the COVID-19 pandemic.
