La Guaira, June 16 (RHC)-- Cuban National Hero René González denounced Friday the injustices and legal arbitrariness against Venezuelan diplomat Alex Saab, unjustly imprisoned in the United States.

In a special speech at the VI Meeting of Cuban Residents in Latin America and the Caribbean, which is being held for two days in that Venezuelan state, González made a parallelism between the case of The Five and that of Saab, and assured that the latter is now suffering what he described as the worst stage of the process.

He affirmed that the diplomat is a Venezuelan patriot, but also of the great homeland of our America, and today he is unjustly imprisoned in the Federal Detention Center of Miami, where he was held.

González pointed out that he is now "suffering pressures, blackmail and mistreatment", in preparation for what could eventually be a rigged trial and face a 20-year sentence.

Saab, like the Cuban Five heroes, he pointed out, was also defending his nation from a genocidal war of another kind, in the "same way we defended Cuba from terrorism", infiltrated by those groups in Miami, who hate and destroy, he stressed.

He explained that the Venezuelan diplomat was trying to break the economic strangulation imposed by the U.S. government on Venezuela.

The Cuban anti-terrorist, who was imprisoned in the United States for 13 years, pointed out that beyond the similarities of both cases, because they protected their respective countries from genocide, Saab's case, in legal terms, breaks all records of violation of international and U.S. laws.

He was kidnapped in Cape Verde in 2020, without a legal instrument to justify it, and denounced that the "instrument emerged after his kidnapping".

He commented that one year after his retention there, a period in which the United Nations and the African Juridical Tribunal pronounced for his release, a binding pronouncement, which the Cape Verdean government should have complied with, held him contrary to these pronouncements and then extradited him to the United States.

Under the slogan "Building Bridges for Growth", the delegates to the VI Meeting will discuss during two days the actions undertaken in the last two years in defense of Cuba, its sovereignty and the tightening of the U.S. siege in the current circumstances.

They will also reflect on the presence of the Cuban nation in social networks and the media, the dissemination of its history and cultural values, among others.
