Cuba will overcome the imperialist offensive
Statement of the Revolutionary Government
US President Donald Trump lashes out against Cuba from day one and without pretext. The decision to reinstate the tough economic warfare measures against Cuba, which his predecessor removed just days before, proves the aggressiveness of US imperialism against the sovereignty, peace and welfare of the Cuban people. These measures comprise the inclusion of our country, once again, in the arbitrary list of States that allegedly sponsor terrorism, a designation that shows an absolute disregard for the truth.
Statement from the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) | Decision of the Government of the United States of America to Remove Cuba from the List of State Sponsors of Terrorism
The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) is pleased to note the decision of the Government of the United States of America, on 14 January 2025, to issue a certification of rescission of the Republic of Cuba’s designation as a State Sponsor of Terrorism.
This decision to remove the Republic of Cuba from the United States of America’s List of State Sponsors of Terrorism, lifts the wrongfully imposed restriction that has inflicted significant hardship on the people of Cuba. This is a step in the right direction.
Statement of the Jamaica-Cuba Friendship Association
‘The economic, commercial and financial blockade is the central element that has defined the policy of the United States towards Cuba for over 60 years. The effects of this undeclared war on the economy, society, daily life and dreams of progress of over 11 million Cubans have been without a single day’s respite’, was the opening statement of Cuba’s Report on Resolution 77/7 of the United Nations General Assembly in 2023, entitled “Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States of America against Cuba’’
