The revolutionary Government of Cuba on Thursday demanded emphatically, on behalf of the people, the end of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States for more than 60 years.

In a statement, the Government recalled that on February 3, 1962, then US President John F. Kennedy issued Executive Order 3447, which decreed a total trade “embargo” against Cuba, with the justification of the country’s rapprochement with the socialist camp.

Since then, the blockade policy and economic asphyxiation has been consolidated as the central axis of the strategy to restrict Cubans’ legitimate right to defend their sovereignty and forge an emancipating project, alien to imperialist domination, the text expressed.

It also noted that the blockade has evolved to become the most complex, prolonged and inhumane act of economic warfare committed against any nation.

Its effects have limited the possibilities of economic development, as it is designed to prevent trade relations with third countries, hinder banking-financial operations to the maximum, curb foreign investment and cut off all sources of income.

The Cuban Government pointed out that the Washington’s blockade has never had the slightest hint of legitimacy, nor moral justification, and constitutes a massive, flagrant and systematic violation of Cubans’ human rights, being an act of genocide by virtue of the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide.

The accumulated damages over the past six decades exceed 144.413 billion dollars at current prices, recalled the statement, which explained that since 2019, the measures of economic coercion have reached a qualitatively higher aggressiveness.

Measures of unconventional warfare, unbefitting peacetime, are enforced in an effort to deprive Cuba of fuel supplies, the document pointed out.

Since 1959, 13 US presidents have occupied the White House. With certain nuances, in all cases there has been a permanent commitment to causing the economic collapse and the unsustainability of the revolutionary project through the strict application of the blockade measures.

It would seem that 60 years have not been enough to understand that it has not fulfilled, nor will it fulfill, the objectives of its promoters, the statement read.

Diaz-Canel reaffirms call for an end to US blockade against Cuba

President Miguel Diaz-Canel on Thursday reaffirmed his demand for the lifting of the United State blockade against Cuba on the 60th anniversary of the formalization of that hostile policy.

On his Twitter account, the Cuban leader wrote, “The Revolutionary Government, on behalf of the Cuban people, emphatically demands the end of the blockade imposed by the US. Our denunciation will remain firm and invariable until this inhumane and illegal policy ceases. #60OfResistance.”

Executive Order 3447, signed by then US President John F. Kennedy on February 3, 1962, formalized the US actions against the emerging Cuban Revolution, which after its triumph three years earlier had to deal with undercover operations and the mercenary invasion of Playa Giron (Bay of Pigs) in 1961.

With the declared intention of provoking hunger and discouragement within the Cuban population, and promoting the overthrow of the government, this policy has been intensified and strengthened during these six decades with measures such as Torricelli (1992) and Helms-Burton (1996) acts, despite the almost unanimous rejection of the international community.

In the last five years, the United States has strengthened the blockade against Cuba by adopting more than 240 unilateral coercive measures dictated by Republican President Donald Trump (2017-2021), 55 of them were approved in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Failing to fulfill its campaign promises, the current Democratic administration of Joe Biden maintains and expands the economic, commercial and financial blockade against Cuba while promoting campaigns of international discredit and internal destabilization.
