The Indian newspaper The Sangai Express criticized the negative impact that the US blockade against Cuba

Havana, Jun 11 (RHC) The Indian newspaper The Sangai Express criticized the negative impact that the US economic, commercial, and financial blockade and the extraterritoriality of this coercive policy have on Cuba's development.

The newspaper pointed out in the article “US coercive diplomacy is generally ineffective and endangers the world”, that this 61-year-old policy against Cuba has already caused enormous losses and serious humanitarian disasters to Cuba.

It ratified that the U.S. siege is reflected from access to fuel, food, and daily necessities to medicines and that it leaves Cuba facing a severe and permanent shortage of supplies.

Even though it is an obsolete type of diplomacy whose first recorded uses were in ancient Greece, the coercive measures, visa restrictions, and the political embargo are part of the US behavior.

But despite all the evidence since then showing that they are generally ineffective and often counterproductive, the U.S. has developed a preference for imposing sanctions on countries because they allow them to act aggressively at a low price, the newspaper article explains. (Source: Prensa Latina)
