The Central Council of EDON salutes, the outcome of the UN’s general assembly voting on the issue of the Cuba’s blockade. On the 1st of November 2017, for yet another year since 1991, the UN general assembly adopted a resolution against the inhuman and unacceptable blockade imposed by the government of U.S.A. against Cuba and the Cuban people.
U.S.A. is called one more time by the international community to withdraw their practices that are not conforming with their obligations under the UN Charter and the international law. As EDON we declare for yet another time, that the imperialist attacks against Cuba, through the implementation of the blockade for decades, have caused hideous limitations on the Cuban people, economic and social blows.
Cuba’s diplomatic victory has shown that the world understands and appreciates the role of Cuba in the international community, the respect of human rights that has shown for all these years and the country’s great achievements that has given to the Cuban people a decent life, freedom and pride. We firmly stand by the right of the Cuban people to choose their own path of social and economic system, to fight and reject the imperialist plans and to safeguard the conquests and achievements of Socialism in Cuba.
