Kabayo, along with a group of prominent PAWO members, in dialogue with Cuban Ambassador to the African Union (AU), Lucas Domingo Hernandez, described the policy as unjust and contrary to international law.

The PAWO chief reaffirmed the continental organization’s commitment to continue strengthening ties of solidarity with Havana and supporting its defense of sovereignty, self-determination, and social justice.

During the meeting held within the framework of the 39th AU Summit, Hernandez highlighted the excellent development of the summit and side events, while also underscoring the atmosphere of unity, commitment, and strategic vision that characterized the discussions.

She stressed the leading role of African women in the region’s political, economic, and social processes, acknowledging their historical leadership in the struggles for independence, social justice, and the continent’s sustainable development.

The Cuban diplomat also shared an update on the current situation on the island, marked by the impact of the tightened economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the US Government.
