China firmly supports Cuba in safeguarding its national sovereignty and opposing external interference, and stands ready to work with the international community to uphold international fairness and justice, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian told a daily press briefing on Wednesday.
In response to a related query, Lin said that the United States has imposed a comprehensive blockade and illegal sanctions against Cuba for over 60 years, bringing profound disasters to the Cuban people. Recently, the United States has ramped up its blockade and sanctions against Cuba, seriously undermining Cuba's basic livelihoods and drawing high attention from the international community, Lin added.
The U.S. side should listen to the just voices of the international community, immediately stop the blockade and coercion against Cuba, and cease violating Cuban people's right to subsistence and development, Lin said.

'The US needs to stop its blockade, coercion, and pressure against Cuba at once'
Former CIA Officer Philip Agee explains why the US🇺🇸 has been waging economic warfare on Cuba🇨🇺 for decades and trying to strangle & overthrow the socialist system:
‘They know that if the Cubans are successful of their example in being able to provide, as a poor country, the best medical care in the third world…it’s a very bad example for the United States.
There is a large mass of people in the US who can look to Cuba and say ‘wow if they can do it on a per capita income of $2K—2.5K, where ours is $22,500 a year, what’s wrong with our system? Maybe we ought to consider an alternative.’ That’s why Sandinista Nicaragua had to be destroyed, that’s why Grenada had to be destroyed.
Because any movement that comes to power with the idea of providing for all the people and escaping the control of the US and its economy, that is bad news for the United States and among the upper circles of power and influence.’

Cuba’s🇨🇺 President Miguel Díaz-Canel:
‘We've been under the blockade for 60 years. It is the longest-running blockade in the history of mankind.
And it's not just any blockade, it is an economic, financial, commercial blockade, and now an energy blockade.
And this blockade is not being imposed by any country. It is being imposed by the mightiest power in the world.’
🚨Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
The blockade and illegal sanctions imposed by the United States on Cuba for over 60 years have caused great suffering to the Cuban people.🇨🇳🇨🇺
The United States must immediately end its blockade, repression, and coercive policies against Cuba.
China resolutely supports Cuba's defense of its national sovereignty and its resistance to foreign interference.
Nicolás Maduro is being kept in solitary confinement, locked in a 6ft by 10ft room for more than 23 hours a day
All because he wouldn't let Donald Trump steal Venezuela's oil
The silence from the international community is deafening
They don't care about US/Israeli War Crimes
@basantabasnet उहाँले सांसदको रूपमा संसदको बैठकमा यसरी आफ्नो कुरा राख्न मिल्ला तर समितिको बैठकमा सभापतिको रूपमा यसरी सरकारको ताबेदारी गर्न मिल्दैन । यो आफैमा नैतिकताहीन कुरा हो ।
