Regarding the anti-Cuba event organized by the .@USUN I stated to the press accredited at the .@UN that #Cuba will not be intimidated, blackmailed or silenced. We call on all Member States to uphold the UN Charter, reject coercion and double standards and support the resolution to end the US blockade against Cuba on 27 and 28 October, as its devastating impact on the Cuban people has reached unprecedented levels this year. The issue before the international community is clear: the United States should stop attacking Cuba and comply with the repeated demand of the international community to end its illegal and inhumane blockade. #CubaIsNotAThreat, the blockade is

Today at the @UN, in just a few minutes, we will once again denounce the severe humanitarian consequences of the U.S. blockade against #Cuba and the energy siege, whose escalation has intensified the collective punishment inflicted on our people. It is deeply contradictory that, while tightening the blockade and pressuring other countries to change their votes on the resolution “Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States of America against Cuba,” @USUN is organizing an event at UN Headquarters aimed at discrediting our country. Behind these political maneuvers lies a reality Washington seeks to conceal: millions of Cubans are suffering the consequences of its coercive measures. #CubaIsNotAThreat, the blockade is.
