Cuba: La Via Campesina Demands Lifting of US Blockade
La Via Campesina expresses strong and fraternal solidarity with the Cuban people, who have resisted with dignity for over sixty years against the criminal economic, commercial, financial, and media blockade imposed by the US government. This blockade is a clear violation of international law and a direct attack on Cuba’s sovereignty, self-determination, and the well-being of its people.
Concerns Over Militarization in the Caribbean
There is deep concern about the growing military threat in the Caribbean, marked by deployments of US war fleets aimed at intimidating and destabilizing the region. These imperialist actions seriously endanger the peace, security, and integrity of Caribbean peoples.
Cuba’s Role in International Solidarity
Cuba serves as a model of international solidarity, sharing its knowledge, science, medicine, and commitment to social justice worldwide. Despite facing renewed aggressions and a crisis intensified by the blockade and sanctions, Cuba continues to demonstrate resilience and hope in adversity.
"Today, as Cuba faces new aggressions and a crisis aggravated by the blockade and sanctions, we reaffirm our recognition and admiration for its resistance, dignity, and ability to build hope in the midst of adversity."
Summary
La Via Campesina calls for an end to the US blockade and warns that militarization threatens regional peace, while praising Cuba’s enduring resistance and global solidarity efforts.
