Statement delivered by the Republic of Cuba at the Security Council Emergency Meeting on the U.S. military aggression against Venezuela. 5 January 2026
Mr. President,
Since September last year, Cuba has been denouncing the United States’ hegemonic and criminal plans, and its aggressive actions against Venezuela and the region. We have clearly exposed the serious and unpredictable consequences of the U.S. government’s irresponsible behavior for the political, social, and economic stability of Latin America and The Caribbean, and for international peace and stability in general.

#Cuba denounces and demands URGENT reaction from the international community against the criminal attack by the United States on #Venezuela.
“We strongly condemn the ongoing military aggression by the #USA against #Venezuela. The bombings and acts of war against Caracas and other locations in the country are cowardly acts against a nation that has not attacked the US or any other country,” the Foreign Minister declared on X.
The Cuban government today strongly condemned the recent airstrikes perpetrated by the United States against Venezuelan territory, calling them an act of state terrorism and a flagrant violation of the South American nation's sovereignty.
