The voice of Cuba will continue to be heard in defense of the full dignity of humankind
The government of the United States implements a policy of maximum pressure against Cuba, thus causing a deterioration in the national consumption, incomes and the living standards of Cuban families. The economic blockade is the cause of inflation, low availability of fuels, foodstuffs, medicines and seriously impairs the electricity service. It prevents the full enjoyment of the rights to food, culture and education, which the State provides either free of charge or heavily subsidized. We thank the 123 States which, back in July last, made their statements in this Council against Cuba’s inclusion in the State Department’s spurious List of countries that allegedly sponsor terrorism.
