Human rights association rejects oil blockade on Cuba

Kiswahili

The director of the Peruvian Human Rights Association (Aprodeh), Eduardo Caceres, highlighted the international consensus on the illegality of the United States' energy blockade against Cuba, which severely affects its people.

In Lima on February 16, Eduardo Caceres, director of the Peruvian Human Rights Association (Aprodeh), emphasized the broad global agreement deeming the United States' energy blockade on Cuba illegal. This blockade, according to Caceres, severely impacts the Cuban population by limiting access to essential energy resources.

Caceres' statement underscores Aprodeh's rejection of these measures, aligning with international views that see the blockade as a human rights violation. The Peruvian organization, recognized for its advocacy in Latin America, uses this occasion to highlight the hardship caused by energy restrictions.

This pronouncement comes amid growing global calls to end the embargo, though specific details on future actions by Aprodeh were not mentioned.
