Taking Cuba off the terrorist list, a priority for U.S. supporters.
Taking Cuba off the list of countries sponsoring terrorism is one of the priorities on which the Solidarity Network in the United States is focusing today, said activist Calla Walsh.
This measure exacerbates the devastating effects of the economic blockade on the island, warned Walsh, co-president of the NNOC (National Network on Cuba) in declarations to Prensa Latina in this capital.
Cooperation between Cuba and the U.S.: Authorization for overflight of hurricane hunter aircraft.
Every year, prior to the beginning of the hurricane season, Cuban and U.S. authorities exchange on the submission of requests for overflight of Cuban airspace by U.S. hurricane hunter aircraft. The year 2023 has been no exception.
These operations are carried out on the basis of a procedure that regulates the terms for the presentation and authorization of requests for entry, transit and operation in the airspace controlled by the Cuban government.
They repudiate and demand in Brazil an end to the blockade against Cuba.
Deputies from different benches and Brazilian solidarity organizations repudiated and demanded today in a hall of the Legislative Assembly of the state of Sao Paulo (Alesp), the end of the blockade against Cuba.
A solemn act against the economic, commercial and financial siege imposed by the United States against the island for more than six decades took place in that hall.
A central moment of the event was the screening of the documentary film The Drop of Water, on the theme of the siege, which caused Cuba total losses of 154 billion 217 million dollars in 60 years.
