The Association of Cubans in the UK expresses support for the Cuban people and condemns the US blockade
The Association of Cubans in the United Kingdom (Cubanos en UK) expresses its strong support and solidarity with the Cuban people, who are going through a difficult situation due to the collapse of the national electro-energy system. This crisis, caused mainly by the lack of fuel, is a direct result of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba.
Cuba Solidarity Campaign statement on power cuts in Cuba
The US government must end its 62-year-old blockade and additional sanctions against Cuba, which are hindering the import of fuel and parts to the country’s energy sector and exacerbating the island’s energy and economic crisis.
Cuba is experiencing its largest blackout in recent years following the failure of the country’s main power station, the Antonio Guiteras thermoelectric plant in Matanzas.
