Statement by Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Cuba Rogelio Sierra Díaz

Havana, December 3, 2017. We have been following with concern the situation that has arisen in Honduras after the elections of last November 26. We reject the repression against popular protests, regret the loss of human life and call to respect the will of the people.
