The Association sent a letter to the US Embassy in Port-au-Prince stating that the resources and funding needed by Cuba for its recovery are restricted due to the blockade.

It also pointed out that Cuba’s inclusion on the list of countries sponsoring terrorism, promoted by former President Donald Trump in his last days in office, seriously affects the people.

The report states that removing Cuba from that spurious list that causes negative effects for all citizens would be a step in the right direction.

The Association also expressed condolences to the victims of Hurricane Ian in Florida and solidarity with all victims.

“We wish that from the wake of death and destruction caused by the hurricane, waves of solidarity arise between the peoples of the United States and Cuba,” stressed the text considering that the moment is an opportunity to lay the foundations for the normalization of the relations between the two countries.

“The situation is critical, and we should act with urgency. The peoples of Cuba and the United States will be grateful,” the text concluded.
