Cuban ambassador attends Annual General Assembly of the Cyprus Association of Major Investment Projects

Nicosia, Cyprus, November 2, 2026 – With the presence of H.E. the President of the Republic of Cyprus, Mr Nikos Christodoulides, the diplomatic corps accredited in this capital was called this Monday to the Annual General Assembly of the Association of Major Investment Projects on this Eastern Mediterranean island. 

The ambassador of the Republic of Cuba in this capital, Rubén Pino Martínez, joined the rest of the invited diplomatic missions in the presentations made by the President of the Republic and the President of the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Mr Nikos Christodoulides and Mr Stavros Stavrou, respectively, who, through their interventions, highlighted the essence of the annual meeting of the host association. 

 “The sustained growth of the Cypriot economy at these levels is a positive sign for the country's direction, especially in an environment of uncertainty and serious challenges. Our goal, noted the Cypriot president, “is to preserve and further strengthen this dynamism through responsible economic policy, prudent fiscal management, and ongoing reforms.”

International community condemns the blockade against Cuba again

New York, October 28, 2026. With 130 votes in favor, the United Nations General Assembly once again supported the Cuban resolution calling for an end to the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba. The result represents a new diplomatic victory for our country and confirms the broad and overwhelming rejection by the international community of a policy that, for decades, has tried to bend the sovereign will of the Cuban people.

When speaking before the General Assembly, Cuba's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, denounced the serious human consequences of the blockade, which limits the exercise of fundamental rights, affects third countries, and turns the population's essential needs into instruments of political coercion.

The Cuban Foreign Minister emphasized the effects of this policy and its consequences on the daily life of Cuban families, in a sick person's bed, in an operating room, in a child's meals and classroom. He warned about the international reach of the pressures and threats exerted by Washington, and posed a question that challenges all states: 'Today the pressure is directed against Cuba; against which state could it be used tomorrow?'

Cuba Present at the Congress of the Pan-Cypriot Council for Peace: reaffirm their condemnation of the ongoing U.S. blockade and threats against Cuba

Nicosia, Cyprus, October 17, 2026. The Ambassador of the Republic of Cuba to Cyprus, Rubén Pino Martínez, participated this Saturday in the inaugural session of the Congress of the Pan-Cypriot Council for Peace (2026).

The event "is being held under intense and peculiar circumstances, both for the homeland and worldwide," commented Mr. Tasos Costeas, President of the Cyprus Peace Council, in his opening remarks.

Amid armed conflicts, where efforts to diversify energy sources are accelerating, with the rising prices of energy and food, and when the burdens on households and businesses are increasing globally; the current conflicts “highlight the strategic interest of the major economies, on the one hand, and their distance from international law, the protection of human rights, and peace on the other,” reflected Tasos Costeas.
