Brazilians raise flags against US blockade of Cuba

Brasilia, Oct 31 (Prensa Latina) Members of the solidarity movement with Cuba in Brasilia, alongside diplomats and staff from the island’s embassy, ​​raised flags and displayed slogans in the capital against the United States blockade.

The initiative took place at the Asa Delta Park, in the Asa Sul sector, where participants climbed to the top of a hill to hoist Cuban flags and unfurl messages rejecting Washington’s policy of hostility toward the Caribbean nation.

With slogans such as “No to the blockade!”, “Solidarity with Cuba,” and “Cuba is not alone,” those present turned the site into a space for supporting the Cuban people and denouncing the consequences of the coercive measures imposed by the United States.

Also present were members of the Jose Marti National Association of Cubans Residing in Brazil (Ancreb-JM), who joined the event alongside representatives of the solidarity movement with Cuba in Brasilia and members of the diplomatic mission.

The messages displayed included the hashtag #CubaIsNotAThreat (#CubaNoEsUnaAmenaza), through which participants defended the island’s right to live in peace and rejected narratives that portray the country as a danger to regional security.

From the top of the hill, the flags and banners sought to convey a message of support for Cuba and opposition to the economic, commercial, and financial embargo that Washington has maintained for more than six decades.

This event in Brasília is part of a broader wave of international solidarity with the island, as well as calls for the U.S. government to end a policy that Cuba considers a violation of its sovereignty.

With flags unfurled and voices united against the blockade, the participants reaffirmed their commitment to solidarity among peoples and delivered a message from the Brazilian capital: Cuba is not alone.
