Statement by Cuba's Foreign Minister, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, Through His X Account
We firmly reject the recent unilateral coercive measures adopted by the #UnitedStates government. These actions demonstrate an intention to impose, once again, collective punishment on the Cuban people.
It is no coincidence that these measures were announced on May 1, the very day that millions of Cubans take to the streets to denounce the US blockade and the energy siege.
While the US government represses its own people in the streets, it seeks to punish ours, who are heroically resisting the US imperialism's attacks.
These measures are extraterritorial in nature and violate the United Nations Charter. The US has no right whatsoever to impose measures against #Cuba or against third countries or entities.
