The League of Palestinian Graduates of Cuban Universities and Institutes demanded the end of the blockade imposed by the U.S.

Beirut, Oct 30 (RHC) On Saturday, the League of Palestinian Graduates of Cuban Universities and Institutes in Lebanon demanded the end of the blockade imposed by the U.S. government on our country for more than six decades.

Through a statement, Ali El-Khatib, president of the union, described as an inhuman, unjust, and aggressive U.S. policy against the Cuban people that prevents the full development of the nation.

"We as students and graduates have lived the reality of the blockade for dozens of years, we feel the effects and difficulties very closely," he said.

In the text, El-Khatib denounced the disrespect of the U.S. administrations and rulers to the international opinion that every year supports the Cuban resolution to end the blockade in the United Nations General Assembly.

A few days before Cuba's presentation at the UN of the report on the need to put an end to the economic, commercial, and financial blockade, the League ratified its support for the right of the Antillean people to live in peace and build their future without any foreign pressure or intervention.

The declaration reiterated its solidarity with the island and condemned the blackmail, manipulation, and destabilization campaigns promoted from US territory.

In this sense, the Palestinian graduates of Cuban institutions demanded the elimination of the criminal blockade that limits the daily life of the Caribbean people.

According to data provided in the report that Cuba will present next week before the United Nations on the subject, between August 2021 and February 2022, that unilateral policy caused losses in the order of three thousand 806.5 million dollars (Source: Prensa Latina).
