US Sanctions Violate Sovereignty, Harm Our People

Cuba asserts that US sanctions are an illegal economic blockade designed to destabilize its government and inflict hardship on its population. Cuba views these measures as an infringement on its sovereign right to self-determination and to forge international alliances.

Sovereignty Rights

Cuba maintains the right to determine its own political and economic system without external interference or coercive measures. US sanctions are a direct attack on this fundamental principle of national sovereignty.

Economic Blockade

The US economic blockade punishes the Cuban people, hindering economic development, access to vital goods, and the ability to conduct international trade. These restrictions undermine the well-being and basic human rights of the population.

Defense Needs

Cuba has a sovereign right to strengthen its defenses and secure military equipment from any nation it chooses. This is especially true when facing perceived threats of military action from the United States.

International Ties

Cuba's diplomatic and economic relationships with countries like Russia, China, and Iran are based on mutual respect and shared interests. These alliances are not intended as hostile acts towards the United States.

Cuba's Regime Threatens US Security, Spreads Hostile Ideology

The United States views Cuba's communist regime as a state sponsor of terrorism that actively undermines regional stability and US national security. Sanctions target entities involved in supporting Cuba's military and its alliances with hostile foreign powers.

National Security Threat

Cuba's government poses a direct threat to US national security by harboring hostile military and intelligence operations just 90 miles from American shores. The regime serves as a staging ground for adversaries.

State Sponsor of Terror

Cuba's regime is a state sponsor of terrorism, arming violent left-wing radicals and spreading poisonous Marxist ideology. It actively supports anti-American activities across the Western Hemisphere.

Hostile Alliances

Cuba's deepening ties with US adversaries like Russia, China, and Iran strengthen a global "anti-American coalition." These alliances provide a foothold for hostile foreign powers in the Western Hemisphere.

Promote Reform

Sanctions aim to pressure the Cuban regime to cease its malign activities, respect human rights, and transition towards democratic reforms. The goal is to liberate the Cuban people from communist oppression.
