U.S. propaganda seeks to justify its asphyxiating policy against Cuba

Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said today that the United States, with lies and cynical propaganda, seeks to justify its cruel and absurd policy of economic asphyxiation against the people of the Caribbean nation.

Through his social account in X Rodriguez informed that in recent days U.S. politicians and the State Department are determined to slander the island, in a desperate search for electoral support from the anti-Cuban mafia.

Authorities of the Caribbean nation revealed last Monday details of an infiltration operation, financed from the United States, aimed at carrying out attacks against economic, social and military objectives with destabilizing purposes.

Some of those involved in the organization, planning and financing of that action are included in the national list of people involved in acts of terrorism against Cuba, among them Willy Gonzalez, head of the paramilitary organization Nueva Nación Cubana en Armas, based in Florida.

According to Colonel Victor Alvarez, second chief of the Specialized Organ of the General Directorate of Criminal Investigation of the Ministry of the Interior, facts like this have been repeatedly denounced to the U.S. authorities without any action being taken.

Analysts say that the U.S. government’s double standards in dealing with such a sensitive issue like that of terrorism shows the true essence of the policy with which successive U.S. administrations have tried, for more than six decades, to overthrow the Cuban Revolution.
