NOTE FROM THE BRAZILIAN SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT WITH CUBA
The Brazilian Movement of Solidarity with Cuba (MBSC) expresses its vehement rejection of the inclusion and permanence of the Republic of Cuba on the infamous list of countries that sponsor terrorism. Created unilaterally by the government of the United States of America, the inclusion of Cuba in the “list of State sponsors of terrorism” has caused several obstacles to the sovereign development of the country. In addition to the illegitimate list, since 1962
US imperialism promotes a criminal economic, commercial and financial policy against the Cuban people. It is unacceptable that the United States, responsible for sponsoring coups d’état, terrorist and dictatorial states and governments around the world, such as the one implemented in Brazil between 1964 and 1985, have the audacity to call Cuba a country that sponsors terrorism.
It is important to highlight that, seven months ago, the United States government supported the genocide perpetrated by the Zionist State of Israel against the Palestinian people. Since the triumph of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, the Cuban government and people have carried out countless actions of solidarity with people from all over the world. When the Covid-19 pandemic afflicted humanity, Cuba exported solidarity by sending doctors to several countries, heroically following the teachings of the eternal Commander Fidel Castro: “we send doctors to the countries, not bombs.”
We reiterate and demand the immediate elimination of the Republic of Cuba from the list of illegal countries that sponsor terrorism. We also demand the end of the criminal economic blockade imposed by the imperialist government of the United States of America, which has caused harm to the Cuban people.
Long live the victorious Cuban Revolution!
Long live proletarian internationalism!
Down with the blockade! We will win!
