Statement of the Cuban delegation in the general discussion of item 19 c) “Crime prevention and criminal justice”, Management Segment of the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). New York, 22 July 2021.

Mr. President:

Cuba remains fully committed to the United Nations efforts in crime prevention and criminal justice, and we reaffirm the relevance of the CCPCJ, which is evident when assessing the report of its 30th session.

It is also clear that this complex topic requires further international cooperation. However, contrary to that spirit, several countries continue to be under unilateral coercive measures that have a heavy toll on sustainable development, including crime prevention and criminal justice efforts.
