Mexican newspaper highlights UN rejection of the blockade on Cuba

Mexico City, Nov 4 (Prensa Latina) Under the title Cuba: moral triumph, unpunished aggression, the newspaper La Jornada of Mexico editorializes today about the vote in the United Nations General Assembly against the United States blockade of Cuba

Like every year, he points out, the General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to demand that the United States end its brutal economic, commercial and financial blockade against Cuba.

The resolution, approved with 187 votes in favor, two against and the abstention of Ukraine, reaffirms the sovereign equality of all states, non-intervention and non-interference in their internal affairs and freedom of trade and navigation and calls on states to refrain from resorting to this type of measures, he says.

Likewise, it condemns the extraterritorial application with which Washington violates the sovereignty not only of the countries it illegally punishes, but also that of all those (including individuals and companies) that wish to establish commercial relations with the sanctioned nations.

It is significant, the newspaper points out, that the only State willing to accompany the United States in the aggressive policy against the Cuban people is Israel, which in turn benefits from the unconditional support of the White House for the genocide it is carrying out against the Palestinians.

In this way, Washington and Tel Aviv appear to be the greatest global violators of human rights and remind the entire international community that the aggressions against Cuba and Palestine are closely intertwined by the complicity between these nuclear powers, the newspaper notes.

Propaganda intoxication, he warns, is another point in common: both the United States and Israel have installed in the multinational media a version in which their victims are accused of terrorism and in which the accusers say they are attacked when the societies they massacre They find any loophole to defend themselves.

The homicidal American behavior during the Covid-19 pandemic, when both Donald Trump and his successor, Joe Biden, prevented the island from importing basic supplies to care for its sick population.

The newspaper also refers to the genocide that Benjamin Netanyahu’s administration is now perpetrating in the Gaza Strip and, to a lesser extent, in the West Bank, facts that should convince the global community to stop symbolic gestures and take action, putting into diplomatic, economic, political and cultural mechanisms are in place.

It is exasperating to see that practically the entire planet recognizes the illegality and injustice to which the island is subjected, but, out of fear or complicity, prefers to look the other way while millions of Cubans are deprived of the most basic goods by the American stubbornness.

In such a context, it is worth gratifying that Mexico is among the nations that raise their voices against this ignominy and extend fraternal support to the Cuban people, the newspaper concludes.
