HAVANA, Cuba, Jan 29 . The Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation, Serguei Lavrov, ratified on Thursday his country’s rejection of Washington’s almost fifty-year-old financial, trade and economic blockade of Cuba.
In an interview with Prensa Latina news agency, the diplomat recalled that every year Russia supports a resolution presented by the Caribbean nation at the General Assembly of the United Nations condemning this hostile US policy.
“Cuba is a country with a great history that chose the path of freedom and independence, and which is not willing to abandon its principles,” Lavrov said.
“It is a very uncommon case in our contemporary world. The Cuban people deserve all our respect because they know their rights and they defend them,” he added.
“We hope that the solidarity of the majority of the world contributes to the revision by the US Government of its policy towards Cuba,” The Russian Foreign Minister concluded.
