Important information about events in Cuba
• The disorders and incidents that occurred in some locations in Cuba on July 11, 2021, are the result of a plan designed by the US government to, opportunistically, exert the greatest possible pressure against Cuba, at a time when it faces a complex situation, derived from 16 months of confrontation with the pandemic and the current outbreak, in addition to the severe resurgence of the blockade and the brutal restrictions it imposes on the Cuban people. This has seriously affected the normal functioning of the Cuban economy, severely reducing income from exports of goods and services, access to fuel and medicines and medical supplies. To this are added other measures such as the failure to grant the number of visas to emigrate and travel temporarily to the United States and the suspension of consular services in Cuba, which considerably limits the travel of Cubans.
