New York, October 31 (RHC)-- The International Committee for Peace, Justice and Dignity is calling friends of Cuba from all over the world, in particular those living in the United States, to participate in a tuitazo today to demand the end of the US genocidal blockade against the island.
A press release from the California-based committee recalls that on Wednesday, November 1st, for the 26th time Cuba will introduce at the UN General Assembly a resolution on the need to put an end that punitive measure.
The text added that since 1992 the annual vote in the United Nations exposes the great hypocrisy of each U.S administration while isolating the world's most powerful country from the community of nations around the world.
Last year the vote marked a new precedence when all member countries voted for the end of the blockade with 2 abstentions, for the first time, United States and Israel.
While requesting the use of hashtags #NomasBloqueo #Niunpasoatras annd #Unblock Cuba during the tuitazo, the International Committee recalled that the United States continues to give itself the right to implement a policy that violates the spirit of the Charter of the United Nations while flagrantly denying the health and prosperity of a peaceful people.
“Cubans have never threatened, occupied or perpetrated a terrorist act against the United States or any other country in the world”, the release said.
Meanwhile, other organizations in the United States will demand an end to the blockade on Wednesday, to coincide with the vote at the UN General Assembly.
The coordinator of the Solidarity with Cuba Movement in New York, Ike Nahem, said they will ratify their condemnation of the hostile measure against Cuba
He told Prensa Latina news agency that a demonstration in support of Cuba will be held in New York on Wednesday and in dozen cities in the US and Canada.
According to the activist. New York will witness a great demonstration of support for the Cuban people in the US.
