Islamic Action Front of Lebanon reaffirms solidarity with Cuba

Beirut, Jan 26 (RHC) The secretary general of the Islamic Action Front of Lebanon, Othman Al Juayd, reaffirmed Thursday his solidarity with Cuba in the fight against the economic, financial, and commercial blockade imposed by the United States.

During a meeting with the head of the diplomatic mission of the island in Beirut, Jorge León, Al Juayd reiterated the support to the Caribbean nation in the confrontation with the imperialist hegemonic policies to the detriment of freedom, independence, and sovereignty of the peoples.

At the same time, he reiterated the Front's commitment to resistance as the only way to confront the Israeli enemy and neutralize the imperialist strategy of divide and conquer.

In this sense, he considered it vital to support the union of the peoples and their anti-imperialist governments to achieve freedom, progress, and happiness of the states.

In welcoming him, the Cuban diplomat thanked the solidarity and firmness of the Islamic Action Front with the resistance of the Antillean people during more than 60 years of sanctions and pressures by the U.S. administrations.

According to a note sent to Prensa Latina, both parties exchanged views on the regional and international situation and confirmed the existing bilateral ties.

The visit to the Cuban embassy in Beirut was also attended by the directors of the Sharif Tutu Front, Walid Alama, and Fouad Sharaf.
