In a statement seen by Prensa Latina, the organization—which represents a significant portion of the Caribbean nation’s community established in this African country—voiced particular concern over the increase in actions aimed at limiting energy supplies to the archipelago.

  It cited restrictions on acquiring fuel, equipment, spare parts, power generation technologies, and international financing—all of which directly impact the quality of life for millions of citizens.

  “These measures are not mere economic decisions; they are mechanisms of political pressure that primarily affect families, workers, students, the sick, and the most vulnerable sectors of society,” Accra maintained.

  It added that Cubans residing in Angola are aware of the human impact of these policies firsthand through family and friends in Cuba, and reiterated that unilateral coercive measures contravene the principles of the United Nations Charter and violate international law.

  Such actions, they added, “limit the sovereign right of peoples to freely decide their political, economic, and social models, without external interference or economic pressure.”

  The statement also noted the international community’s firm rejection of this U.S. policy toward Cuba, as demonstrated year after year by the resolution demanding an end to the blockade.
