CUBAN Ambassador to Zimbabwe Susellys Pérez Mesa has called for an end to the six-decade-long United States economic blockade against her country, describing it as a “policy of comprehensive economic aggression” that violates international law and undermines the right to development.
In a statement ahead of the upcoming United Nations General Assembly vote on the annual resolution condemning the blockade, Ambassador Mesa said Cuba and Zimbabwe shared the battle against unilateral coercive measures and continue to stand in solidarity against policies that greatly affect the right to development of both countries.
“This was recently reaffirmed by both Foreign Ministers during the high-level segment of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly,” she said.
The ambassador said the UN General Assembly will on October 29, 2025, debate and vote for the 33rd time on the resolution titled “Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the Government of the United States against Cuba.”
