“We talked with many people interested in our reality and fraternized with solidarity associations that work on projects with Cuba, such as Cuba Cooperation France (CubaCoop), Cuba Linda, Cuba Si France and France Cuba,” said the member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party and the Council of State.

According to Sanchez, a recurring theme during the three days of the festival was the denunciation and condemnation of the blockade imposed by the United States.

“We always explain that it is the main obstacle to the socioeconomic development of the country and that it remains intact, because many believe that with the departure of Donald Trump and the arrival of Joseph Biden in the White House, the blockade ended,” he said.

Sanchez also presented the main advances made on the new Family Code, which will be submitted to a popular referendum on September 25th.

“We also talk about our Covid-19 vaccines, the energy situation and other challenges we face in the context of the US blockade,” he said.

Sanchez spoke with French political personalities, including the leader of the Communist Party Fabien Roussel, and from other countries, such as the Spanish MEP Manu Pineda.
