Havana:
Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel stated Friday the United States “has failed in its efforts to destroy Cuba,” just after Joe Biden known as the island nation “a failed state.”
“The United States has failed in its efforts to destroy Cuba, despite spending billions of dollars to do so,” the Communist leader tweeted, 5 days just after historic anti-government protests saw one death, dozens of injuries and more than one hundred arrests.
“A failed state is a state which, in order to please and blackmail a reactionary minority, is capable of multiplying the damage to 11 million human beings, ignoring the will of the majority of Cubans, Americans and the international community,” Diaz-Canel continued, referring to the US trade embargo in spot because 1962 and reinforced beneath former president Donald Trump.
On Thursday Biden — who accused Cuba of “repressing their citizens” — stated the United States was preparing to potentially send to Cuba “significant amounts of vaccine if, in fact, I was assured an international organization would administer those vaccines and do it in a way that average citizens would have access to those vaccines.”
He also stated the US was thinking about approaches to force open net restrictions in Cuba.
Diaz-Canel shot back, saying: “If President Joseph Biden had sincere humanitarian concern for the Cuban people, he could eliminate the 243 measures implemented by President Donald Trump, including the more than 50 cruelly imposed during the pandemic, as a first step towards ending the blockade.”
