Cuba's ambassador to France, Otto Vaillant, denounced the US-imposed blockade on his country at an event in Paris. He highlighted the world's upcoming opportunity to condemn this policy once again. The statement emphasizes international solidarity with Cuba.
In Paris on October 24, 2025, Cuba's ambassador Otto Vaillant spoke out against the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba for over six decades. According to Prensa Latina, Vaillant stressed that this coercive measure violates the fundamental principles of the UN Charter and severely hampers the Caribbean island's development.
The diplomat pointed out that in just a few days, during the upcoming UN General Assembly session, the international community will have another chance to reject this genocidal policy. 'The world will have the opportunity to condemn this policy once again,' Vaillant stated, recalling previous UN resolutions passed by overwhelming majorities.
This pronouncement fits into Cuba's ongoing efforts to highlight the blockade's impact, which has resulted in billions of dollars in economic losses. Vaillant also underscored growing global solidarity, with voices from Europe and Latin America joining the condemnation. No further details on the specific event were reported, but the message reinforces Cuba's stance on sovereignty and resilience.
