Against US Threats to Cuba

We strongly condemn the threats issued by the United States of America
against socialist Cuba and denounce its decision to block the shipment of
oil. This is against the international law and a violation of the UN
Charter.

After its attack on Venezuela and the kidnapping of President Nicolas Maduro
and First Lady Cilia Flores, the United States is now proceeding against
Cuba. It is threatening countries that supply oil to Cuba with sanctions.
The US believes that by strangling Cuba economically, it can destabilise the
country.

The US has been trying to destabilise Cuba for the last 67 years, using
various means, including open terrorist attacks, an economic blockade, and
even attempts to assassinate Fidel Castro. All of these have failed. The
National Security Strategy 2025 announced by the US President Donald Trump
is another attempt by the US to target and destabilise socialist Cuba. The
people of Cuba have heroically resisted all earlier attempts, and we are
confident that they will resist the current aggression as well.

Cuba is a heroic nation that has consistently stood for international
solidarity and assisted countries by sending doctors and medical personnel
in times of need. It has readily shared its medical expertise and vaccines
with many countries in the Global South. Attacking such a noble country
should be considered an attack on humanity itself.

The Indian government should condemn these US threats and reiterate its
solidarity with Cuba. The entire international community must stand with
Cuba and oppose US aggression.

We urge the people of our country to rally in defence of Cuba's sovereign
rights.
