Cuba reaffirms its commitment to Venezuela
Declaration by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba.
Declaration by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba.
We have once again witnessed another infamous and immoral decision by the discredited OAS, against the Bolivarian Revolution; a repetition of the shameful pages written against the Cuban Revolution in the 1960s.
The calling of a Meeting of Ministers of Foreign Affairs, to continue harassing the Venezuelan government, constitutes another action consistent with the OAS’ traditional role as an instrument of imperialist domination in the hemisphere; in order to undermine the sovereignty, independence and dignity of Our America.
Responding to the invitation of the Embassy of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela in Tehran, the Ambassador Vladimir Gonzalez Quesada represented Cuba at the ceremony to mark the 207th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence of this nation. The Cuban diplomat joined the other colleagues of missions who represent the Bolivarian Alliance of the Peoples of Our America-Treaty of Peoples' Trade (ALBA-TCP) in the Persian nation: Nicaragua, Bolivia and Ecuador.
Declaration of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba
La XIV Cumbre de Jefes de Estado y Gobierno de la Alianza, celebrada el 5 de marzo en Caracas, nos dejó una Declaración que constituye una poderosa guía de acción para los tiempos que vive Nuestra América y para enfrentar los peligros que se ciernen sobre nuestros pueblos, especialmente para aquellos que por la voluntad ejercida en las urnas, se constituyeron en poder, y que ahora son acosados por las oligarquías, el imperialismo y sus instrumentos de dominación.

The 15th ALBA Political Council is taking place this Monday, April 10, in Havana with the participation of various Foreign Ministers of the bloc.
The Organization of American States (OAS) now confronting Venezuela is the same organization that has endorsed aggression and military intervention, one which has consistently maintained silence in the face of serious violations of democracy and human rights across the hemisphere.
