Sierra de Cubitas, May 30. - The commercial, economic and financial siege imposed by the United States (USA) on Cuba, since February 7, 1962, later converted into law in 1992 and 1995, is one of the most lasting in history, condemned 15 times by the United Nations.

Recently, the US Government has adopted new measures that aggravate the aggression against the Island and intensify the economic, financial and commercial war that successive imperial administrations have supported, to a greater or lesser extent, since the very Triumph of the Cuban Revolution.

All this has the purpose of creating difficulties and economic discontents in the country, alienating and discouraging the Cuban people.

It is the continuity and prolongation of the ancestral desire to seize the ripe fruit that was seen a few miles south of the nascent empire.

The government of Donald Trump has chosen the confrontation, instead of the dialogue, the punitive measures, instead of the mutually advantageous trade; the prohibitions, instead of cooperation. It goes back to the times of the Big Stick and the Monroe Doctrine.

Faced with this aggression, intelligence, creativity, daily effort, efficiency, the search for national solutions, rationality, unity, and the principles of all those who live and defend these Cuban soils are imposed.
