Cuban FM ratifies commitment to disarmament and non-proliferation

GH6PFqKWEAEHADy
Havana, Mar 5 (Prensa Latina) Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez ratified Cuba's commitment to disarmament and non-proliferation on International Day to raise awareness of this scourge that affects humanity.

On his X account, Rodríguez repeated Cuba’s stance on this priority of the United Nations.

While more and more expensive and efficient weapons are built to kill citizens, millions of people are victims of hunger and poverty, the head of Cuban diplomacy denounced.

The United Nations has consistently denounced the unjustifiable human suffering caused by weapons and has advocated to redouble disarmament efforts as a guarantee of peace and security on the planet.

The multilateral organization urges to prevent and end armed conflicts and respect human rights in the world.

The estimated price of a fighter jet on the arms market could send some 200,000 children to school for a year, the United Nations states on its official website, illustrating the impact of the global arms scourge.
