Havana, February 1 (RHC) The secretary general of the General Confederation of Labor (CGT) in the Marne Valley, Cédric Quintin, advocated greater pressure in France and Europe against the U.S. blockade of Cuba and its extraterritorial scope.

In statements to Prensa Latina, he said they should act so that there is coherence with the French vote at the United Nations General Assembly to favor the resolution that demands the end of that blockade, which goes through concrete measures of support to our banks and companies and can work with Cuba and not be subject to the laws of the United States.

In mid-January, the National Secretary of the French Communist Party Fabien Roussel said he would launch a proposal to unite associations, unions, and other political forces in a great campaign of solidarity with Cuba and against the US blockade.

The trade unionist highlighted the resistance of the Cuban people and the model of the struggle it represents as an incentive for continued political support and concrete solidarity. (Source: Prensa Latina)
