'Red Card for U.S. at U.N.!’ Cuba’s Foreign Minister Calls Out Hypocrisy of US Claims Over Blockade https://world-outlook.com/2026/07/12/red-card-for-u-s-at-u-n/ from #WorldOutlook July 12, 2026 UNITED NATIONS, NEW YORK CITY, July 7, 2026 — In a diplomatic offensive aimed at challenging the #US economic war against #Cuba, Cuba’s foreign minister #BrunoRodríguezParilla requested a session of the #UNGeneralAssembly to re-open debate on ending the US blockade of the island. US secretary of state #MarcoRubio actively and aggressively opposed the proposal. But an overwhelming majority of #UN member states approved Cuba’s request to hold the debate. 136 voted in favor, 9 against, and 30 abstained. A win for Cuba! This is an eyewitness report on the debate that followed. #NoWarOnCuba #USHandsOffCuba #OilForCuba! #CubaIsNotAlone #EndTheBlockadeEmbargo #CubaSolidarity #LetCubaLive #EndSanctionsAgainstCuba #CubaNoEstáSola #AbajoElBloqueo #SolidaridadConCuba #PetróleoParaCuba #LatinAmerica #Caribbean #news #politics #USpol
