After the UN General Assembly -- for the 32nd year in a row -- overwhelmingly called for an end to the US economic blockade of Cuba on October 30, the Communist Party of Cuba issued a statement in solidarity with the Cuban people.
To the leadership of the Communist Party of Cuba
30th October 2024
Dear comrades,
Today, in the United Nations General Assembly, the whole world once again confirmed the necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States against Cuba.
In this vote, in which Moldova abstained, the USA and Israel voted against, and all other countries of the world supported Cuba, it was once again recorded that this inhumane policy against the Cuban people is a crime of genocide.
It was once again shown to the US imperialism that there is no political, economic and legal justification to legitimise the blockade tyranny that prevents the development of the Cuban economy and the Cuban people from living in the prosperity and peace they deserve.
It is no coincidence that the only two countries that support the blockade are the USA and Israel; the obligation of these two countries, which have turned the Middle East into a sea of blood and committed genocide against the Palestinian people, to account to humanity was once again multiplied with the immoral attitude they took in this vote.
It is a victory to make 187 governments from completely different geographies of the world and from completely different political lines take this stance against the US blockade; this victory is the result of the supreme determination of the Cuban revolutionary government and the heroic resistance of the Cuban people.
We sincerely greet and congratulate the revolutionary leader of the Cuban people, the Communist Party of Cuba, the revolutionary government of Cuba and all our Cuban brothers and sisters.
This victory must be crowned with a final victory and the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed on Cuba must be unconditionally lifted. Cuba must be immediately removed from the so-called ‘list of states that support terrorism’, which is used to legitimise and reinforce the blockade.
It is the common responsibility of all the peoples of the world to shoulder the determination and resistance displayed by Cuba and to raise the flag of struggle against the blockade until the final victory is achieved.
Communist Party of Turkey declares once again that it stands by the Communist Party of Cuba and the Cuban people who do not bow down to the blockade and heroically defend the revolution in its 65th year and that it will fulfil its responsibility to lift the blockade.
Down with the blockade!
Long live Socialist Cuba!
Long live internationalist solidarity!
Communist Party of Turkey
Central Committee
