Cubans in Argentina demand end to US blockade of their country

Buenos Aires, Sep 13 (Prensa Latina) The Union of Cuban Residents in Argentina (URCA) asserted today that the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on the island is genocidal and cruel and demanded the end of that policy.

In a statement, the URCA condemned the blockade applied for more than six decades and supported the complaint made by the Cuban Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bruno Rodríguez, who specified that from March 1, 2023 to February 29, 2024, it caused material damages and losses of five thousand 56.8 million dollars.

In addition, the organization demanded Washington “end the farce of including Cuba on the list of alleged sponsors of terrorism.”

The situation that our people, including our mothers, fathers, children, brothers and other relatives, are experiencing is very sad, due to the arrogance and obsession of the US government to end the Cuban Revolution, the URCA message states.

On the other hand, it highlights that the Caribbean nation decided its destiny on January 1, 1959 and has ratified it on repeated occasions.

What the northern empire is doing, in addition to interference, is also genocide and a crime against humanity, since it prevents Cuba from accessing food, medicines, equipment and medical supplies, fuel, lubricants and other products that are essential for life, by all possible means, the document indicates.

Revolutionary Cuba never constituted a threat to the security of the United States, except for that which emanates from its example and it is precisely for this reason that the different American governments are determined to destroy us, it adds.

Likewise, it reiterates its support for the leadership and the people of the largest of the Antilles.
