The WFTU Presidential Council, which met at its annual meeting on the 4th and 5th of March 2025 in Hanoi, Vietnam, expresses its full solidarity and support to the heroic people of Cuba, who despite the murderous embargo and the imperialist interventions all these decades, continue to keep the flag of the Revolution high.
The struggling people of Cuba are going through difficult days, due to the consequences of the murderous longstanding imperialist blockade imposed by the United States and its allies, which has caused severe shortages. The well-known circles, those who are trying in every way to overthrow the Cuban revolution, are trying to take advantage of the reactions of dissatisfaction by the citizens because of the shortcomings that exist, in order to exert pressure and intensify the attacks on the socialist state of Cuba.
In this difficult situation, along with the attempt for the international isolation of Cuba, the inclusion by the USA of the country in the list of countries that “allegedly sponsor terrorism” is added. The WFTU condemns Donald Trump’s first act as US President, which was to put Cuba back on the State Sponsors of Terrorism list—just 6 days after its removal. This action consists a blatant mockery, disrespectful, and deceitful move that escalates the economic war on the Cuban people.
The WFTU reaffirms its solidarity with Cuba, and reiterates its unwavering demand for:
- The immediate and complete lifting of the U.S. economic blockade against Cuba, and the permanent removal of the country from the list of countries that “allegedly sponsor terrorism”.
- An end to all forms of external interference in Cuba’s sovereignty.
- The non-negotiable right of the Cuban people to determine their future. We support their just demand for a peaceful recovery and an end to all coercive measures.
Solidarity with Cuba! End the Blockade Now!
WFTU Presidential Council
