#UnblockCuba

Havana, June 9 (RHC)-- The publication on Thursday of new regulations on U.S. travel and remittances to Cuba do not constitute a significant change in the essence of the U.S. economic, financial and commercial blockade against the Caribbean island.

Cuban Foreign Minister, Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla, tweeted that the regulations on the measures announced on May 16 by the U.S. administration on Cuba confirm their extremely limited character and that the full enforcement of the economic blockade and that the most aggressive aspects of Trump's measures remain in place.

Pretoria, February 24, 2022.- The Cuban Ambassador Enrique Orta González met today with Zola Saphetha, General Secretary of the South African Health and Education Workers Union (NEHAWU) .

NEHAWU has maintained its solidarity with Cuba in the most difficult moments, through the firm support it gives to the struggle to lift the United States blockade against Cuba, the defense of our right to self-determination and the construction of the road to socialism.

Monrovia, February 10, 2022 - The Head of the Cuban Mission in Liberia, Mercedes L. Martinez Herrera, held an exchange with Mr. Joaquin Sendolo, journalist of the African country.

The occasion was propitious to thank the African Union for its support. For the thirteenth consecutive time, it called at its Summit to lift the prolonged and unjustifiable policy imposed by the US against Cuba. 

Declaration by the revolutionary government

The revolutionary government condemns the continuance for over 60 years of the economic, commercial and financial sanctions formally imposed by the United States on 3rd February 1962. On that date, the then president, John F. Kennedy, issued Proclamation 3447, “Embargo on All Trade with Cuba” under Section 620(a) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. He thereby conferred official status on the unilateral economic hostilities already in effect against Cuba since our country’s revolutionary victory.
