Sao Paulo Forum approves a resolution of solidarity with Cuba

Brasilia, Jul 3 (RHC) The 26th Meeting of the Sao Paulo Forum, which held a four-day session approved a resolution of solidarity with Cuba in response to the growing U.S. hostility reflected in the blockade.

The forum denounced in its decision the “extraterritorial nature of the application of the 3rd Title of the Helms-Burton Act, which constitutes the main obstacle to the socio-economic development of Cuba, an attack on its sovereignty and a flagrant violation of the principles of international law.”

Therefore, the mechanism of coordination of leftist forces and movements from 27 countries of Latin America and the Caribbean approved “to demand the unconditional lifting of the criminal blockade against Cuba for more than six decades.”

It demands Cuban exclusion from the “illegal and spurious list of countries sponsoring terrorism and rejects the programs of subversion, destabilization and media war against Cuba.”

The organization also requests in its text “the return to the Cuban people of the territory illegally occupied by the Guantanamo Naval Base, which has been usurped for over 120 years by the U.S. Government, violating the sovereignty of the country.”

It calls for spreading the truth about Cuba, as opposed to the media campaigns financed by the U.S. administration that systematically defame and distort the Cuban reality and hide the achievements of the Revolution.

Likewise, it urges to support the revolutionary process, which is “based on the principles of solidarity, social justice, internationalism and unity of our peoples.”

The meeting, which had held its 26th edition in Brasilia from June 29 to July 2, encourages to recognize that, despite Cuban limitations due to the U.S. blockade, its “Socialist Revolution, without resorting to neoliberal recipes, has achieved that its people enjoy fundamental rights and freedoms for the full development of all Cubans.”

In addition, Cuba is an example of its constant internationalist practice that has contributed to the development of human rights in many countries worldwide.

Finally, the forum ratifies in its resolution its steady solidarity and commitment with Cuba’s Communist Party, the revolutionary government, and the Cuban people in their efforts to preserve the sovereignty and independence of the country and to maintain unalterable the decision to build socialism.

Such resolution recalls the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, when he affirmed, “If the enemy is powerful in its resources, in its aggression, in its evil, we must be more powerful than the enemy in our dignity, our revolutionary strength, our conviction, faith, and in our courage!
