Once again the world says Better Without the Blockade
More than 80% of the current Cuban population was born under the effects of the blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba, which is the main cause of the deprivation, suffering and shortages of Cuban families.
This policy is a deliberate act of economic warfare aimed at preventing financial income to the country and causing the economy to collapse. Among its aims is to reduce salaries and provoke discouragement.
In this sense, the blockade creates conditions that encourage irregular, disorderly and unsafe migration.
Former Latin American leaders sign letter against the blockade
Eighteen former Latin American and Caribbean leaders signed a letter published today calling on U.S. President Joe Biden to end the blockade imposed on Cuba more than six decades ago.
The signatories, who made the appeal after the devastation inflicted by Hurricane Ian in September in the Caribbean nation, also request that the U.S. President remove Cuba from his (unilateral) list of State Sponsors of Terrorism.
Letter sent to Biden by former Latin American Presidents
November 2nd, 2022
Mr. JOSEPH BIDEN
President of the United States of America
Washington, DC
Dear President Biden,
From the UNGA the world supports the end of the blockade against Cuba
During the debate in the United Nations General Assembly on the Resolution "Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States of America against Cuba", foreign ministers from all latitudes and representatives of international and regional organizations expressed their rejection of this unjust policy.
The system of coercive measures applied against Cuba is the most unjust, severe and prolonged that has ever been applied against any country in modern history, Venezuela pointed out.
The blockade tries, unsuccessfully, to take away even our smiles.
Solidarity sets the pace in these days prior to the presentation of Cuba's truth at the un, wrote Monday on Twitter the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Party and President of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, champion of the battle in the political, diplomatic and symbolic field against the U.S. policy that aggravates the crisis with its fierce persecution.
