Statement by Juan Antonio Quintanilla Román, Ambassador, Permanent Representative of Cuba, at the General Segment of the 49th regular session of the Human Rights Council.
Mr. President,
Last February 26, the Cuban Government issued a statement on the events that are taking place in Ukraine, in which it clearly expressed its position in favor of a solution that guarantees the security and sovereignty of all and addresses legitimate humanitarian concerns.
Our position on this issue was also extensively addressed during the statement of the Cuban delegation on the occasion of the emergency special session of the UN General Assembly held this week.
Mr. President,
“Cuba champions a solution that guarantees the security and sovereignty of all”
Statement by the Revolutionary Government
The U.S. determination to continue NATO’s progressive expansion towards the Russian Federation borders has brought about a scenario with implications of unpredictable scope, which could have been avoided.
United States’ and NATO’s military moves towards regions adjacent to the Russian Federation in recent months, preceded by the delivery of modern weapons to Ukraine, which together conform a military siege, are well known.
