Paris, Oct 25 (RHC) The French association Cuba Linda is promoting a campaign on social networks to denounce terrorist actions against the island organized and financed for decades by the United States.

 

The initiative is framed within the framework of the new vote that will take place in early November at the UN General Assembly on a resolution that establishes the need to end the U.S. economic, commercial and financial blockade of Cuba, a text categorically supported since 1992 by the international community.

 

The president of Cuba Linda, Didier Lalande, explained to Prensa Latina that the campaign responds to the repudiation generated by the fact that one of Washington's measures to tighten its blockade was the inclusion of the island in January 2021 in its unilateral list of countries sponsoring terrorism.

 

Lalande recalled the approximately 3,500 fatalities and more than 2,000 disabled as a result of the attacks, which included machine-gunning and bombings, such as the explosion of the steamship La Coubre (1960) and the blowing up of a Cubana airplane (1976). Didier Lalande, president of the Cuba Linda association.

 

Likewise, he warned that terrorism to attack the Antillean nation is not a thing of the distant past, and in that sense, he mentioned the recent violent acts against the embassies in Washington (2020) and Paris (2021).

 

Cuba Linda condemned the inclusion of the Caribbean country in the list of sponsors of terrorism, which she described as a hallucinatory action to reinforce the extraterritorial nature of the blockade imposed for more than 60 years on supportive and altruistic people.

 

The campaign disseminates images and data on the violent acts and their victims, and the photo of a child in a school from the island demanding the end of the blockade with a banner that reads "Mr. Biden Cuba is not a terrorist country, Cuba wants to live. Remove the blockade".

 

Lalande told Prensa Latina that in November the association will send a new group of French visitors to get to know the reality of the largest of the Antilles.

 

On this trip, we will deliver to the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples (ICAP) a donation of more than seven thousand euros and medicines collected in solidarity with the people affected by Hurricane Ian in the province of Pinar del Río, he added. (Source: PL)
