This is what explains, he said, the sustained resistance, like no other people in the Americas, to an economic, commercial and financial blockade, which prevents them from competing on equal terms with other nations in trade relations.

The free market and even the right of integration have been denied to Cuba to damage its social and political model of unique character in the continent built under its legitimate and free decision, added the political leader.

Over the last 60 years, they have faced in different opportunities serious and annoying situations like the present one, due to the economic blockade that prevents the Cuban people from accessing credit and international trade, with the health and economic disaster caused by Covid-19.

The professor assured that there will always be dissatisfaction and nonconformity and even more so in times of extreme need such as those experienced all over the world, but ‘in our sister nation it is worse due to the conditions imposed, and because nonconformity is encouraged from the main center of power’.
