Cuban artists bet on music while the US sows hatred

Havana, Jan 31 (Prensa Latina) Several Cuban artists have joined together to sing for peace and in defense of national sovereignty, in a resounding rejection of the measures adopted by the US government against Cuba, measures as widely condemned as they are violations of national rights.

One of the musicians leading this initiative is Alexander Abreu, director of the group Havana D’Primera, along with members of the Hermanos Saiz Association (AHS).

The video accompanying the song “Humanity Asks for a Better World” has generated numerous reactions on digital platforms, where it is being shared in solidarity with the Cuban people, besieged for more than 60 years by a fierce blockade now intensified by the recent measures of the Trump administration.

The messages seen in the post mostly defend Cuba and its right to sovereignty, while repudiating the US government’s policy of suffocation.

Numerous expressions of support have emerged for the Caribbean nation, rejecting the Executive Order recently signed by President Donald Trump, which declares a national emergency and establishes a process for imposing tariffs on goods from countries that sell or supply oil to Cuba.

Messages from the Network of Intellectuals, Artists, and Social Movements in Defense of Humanity, the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba (UNEAC), prominent Cuban intellectual and president of Casa de las Americas, Abel Prieto, and Brazilian theologian Frei Betto, among others, have been prominent.

Support has also come from countries such as Mexico, Brazil, Chile, and Russia, as well as from prominent U.S. figures who are friends of Cuba.
