US movements of solidarity with Cuba staged a Normalization Conference between both countries.
The United States-Cuba International Conference on Normalization concluded this Sunday in New York, in what the organizers called “another universal effort to put an end to the illegal White House blockade policy towards Cuba.”
The conclave was attended by solidarity organizations with Cuba from the United States, Canada, South Africa and Colombia, which intend to form a common front of solidarity organizations and people of good will to demand “the cessation of the criminal policy against the Cuban people”.
From the organization Puentes de Amor, led by Carlos Lazo, they denounced the history of aggressions of the different administrations of the United States against the Cuban family and highlighted the unjust prohibitions that prevent greater closeness between relatives of both countries.
For his part, for the Friends of Cuba Coalition in South Africa, Clever Banganayi thanked the Cuban people for their solidarity with the African continent and demanded, in this sense, the end of the policy of hostility, considering it counterproductive with the history of the Island. .
The representatives of the various organizations criticized the strengthening of the anti-Cuban policy by the government of then President Donald Trump (2017-2021) and its continuity under the current administration of Joe Biden.
The meeting was held at the headquarters of the solidarity association The People’s Forum, New York, with the presence of more than 150 people, while hundreds of activists from other countries took part virtually through online platforms.
The deputy ambassador of Cuba to the UN, Yuri Gala, in a speech before the participants said that: “it is unacceptable to deny the people of Cuba the right to peace and development. Cuba will continue fighting. We are all on the right side of history.”
In turn, the coordinator of the Latin American School of Medicine Scholarship Program at Pastors for Peace, Samira M. Adrrey, criticized the blockade: “Imagine the amount of human energy that is wasted dealing with the US blockade in the daily life of Cubans”.
Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez celebrated the meeting as part of his country’s efforts to denounce US policy towards Cuba.
