Video - US Lawmakers Visited a Cuban Hospital. Here’s What They Saw https://peertube.world/w/tEHfqxFwVMbrvV2wEVB7j7 Duration - 3:30 [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast] Four Democratic lawmakers traveled to Cuba in July to see the human impact of the #US economic war on Cuba firsthand. During the trip, Reps. Maxine Dexter (D-OR), Mark Pocan (D-WI), Teresa Leger Fernández (D-NM) and Delia Ramirez (D-IL) visited Havana’s Hermanos Ameijeiras #Hospital. “We don’t have the resources to perform major surgeries,” Dr. Calixto Hernández told the delegation. He said the hospital had performed 2,300 surgeries in the first four months of this year — 900 fewer than during the same period the year before. “Does this make any sense?” Rep. Leger Fernández asked “A blockade that prevents basic materials for #health?” “We have to end this war on the Cuban people,” Rep. Ramirez said. “It’s not just immoral. It’s evil.” #USHandsOffCuba #politics #USpol #healthcare

Cuba’s Foreign Ministry denounces slanderous campaign by the U.S. State Department Statement from the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly rejecting the new slanderous campaign by the US Department of State against the island, published in its entirety on the Cubaminrex website. https://www.radiohc.cu/cubas-foreign-ministry-denounces-slanderous-campaign-by-the-u-s-state-department/#pll_switcher July 21, 2026 Cuba rejects, in the strongest terms, the report published on July 20 by the United States Department of State, concerning Cuba’s alleged subversive influence against that country. It is a mediocre propaganda pamphlet. It seeks to bolster the mendacious message that Cuba constitutes a threat to the United States, a pretext that the #US government uses for collective punishment and genocide against the Cuban people. It aims, through the construction of accusatory narratives, to fabricate support for a possible military aggression. #NoWarOnCuba #USHandsOffCuba #OilForCuba! #EndTheBlockadeEmbargo #EndSanctionsAgainstCuba #OffTheList #news #politics #USpol

Video - State Department Makes Case for Repression and Cuba Regime Change https://peertube.world/w/hqRPXhoJTpDDV5PFGVDPg1 Duration - 1:53 [a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast] The #US State Department just released a 100-page report accusing Cuba of influencing virtually every major progressive movement, organization, protest and activist over the last 65 years.
