Mr. President,

We appreciate the report of the Director General and the work of the Organization on the ground, following the adoption of resolution EBSS7.R1 on December 10.

The report illustrates in detail the situation that we observe day after day through the alarming images that reach us from the occupied Palestinian territories.

Mr. President,

Cuba ratifies its unequivocal adherence to the "one China" principle”

Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cuba reiterates its resolute and unwavering adherence to the "one China" principle and recognizes Taiwan as an inalienable part of China's territory, in light of the attempts by secessionist forces and external actors to capitalize on this issue to undermine the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the People's Republic of China, interfere in its internal affairs, and undermine regional and international peace and security.

Cuba speaks at the extraordinary session of the WHO Executive Board on Palestine.

Mr. President,

Yesterday, December 9, Day for the commemoration and dignity of the victims of the crime of genocide and its prevention, the world witnessed a reappearance of this scourge in the Palestinian territories.

Cuba condemns in the strongest terms the genocide that Israel, the occupying power, is committing today in Gaza.
