Santo Domingo, March 25 (RHC)-- The President of Honduras, Xiomara Castro, demanded the end of the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States against Cuba for more than six decades.

When speaking at the high-level segment of the 28th Ibero-American Summit, the Head of State assured that Washington’s unilateral measure against the Caribbean Island is a crime against humanity.

The president described this US policy as unfair and failed since it affects the Cuban people and leaves no results for those who apply it.

In the same way, she demanded to eliminate the blockade policies applied against other Latin American nations such as Venezuela and Nicaragua.

In this sense, she described as shameful the role of the powers in managing “absurd sanctions for the countries of the region that, if they do not obey their recipes, then blockades and coups d’état are planned.”

The ruler called to combat the piracy imposed with the so-called model cities and asked the globalized world to stop the overexploitation of the natural resources of nations. (Source: Prensa Latina)
