#SHORTS | Palestinians in Cuba on the Siege of Gaza - 10/16/2023

[A #video on #PeerTube about #Cuba from the video collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

Fear for their families’ safety and anger over #Israel's indiscriminate bombing campaign in #Gaza are the only things on the minds of the hundreds of #Palestinians currently studying medicine in #Cuba.

Since October 7, nearly one hundred of these students from Gaza have been living in a state of uncertainty, almost completely cut off from their families—who have been forced to flee their homes with no food, water or electricity.

#TedCruz forgot it was #FulgencioBatista, not #FidelCastro, who tortured his father. Like #MarcoRubio and #RobertMenendez, he has pushed a false victim narrative to justify his political agenda.

Back Campaign to Send Pacemakers to Cuba

from #WorldOutlook

The National Network on Cuba and the U.S.-Cuba Normalization Coalition have announced a campaign that combines raising money to send crucially needed cardiac pacemakers to Cuba with boosting efforts to end Washington’s economic war against Cuba, defend Cuba’s internationalist medical missions, and remove Cuba from the U.S. State Department State Sponsor of Terrorism (SSOT) list. That designation makes it almost impossible for #Cuba to buy pacemakers commercially.

Cuba Sends #Doctors, the US Sends #Sanctions

The #UnitedStates calls #Cuba’s medical internationalism "human trafficking" — but it’s really an internationalist lifeline for the #GlobalSouth.

On February 25, #US secretary of state #MarcoRubio announced restrictions on visas for both government officials in Cuba and any others worldwide who are “complicit” with the island nation’s overseas #medical-assistance programs. A #USStateDepartment statement clarified that the sanction extends to “current and former” officials and the “immediate family of such persons.”

U.S. #Unionists Press #Biden to Remove Cuba from ‘Terrorism’ List

from #WorldOutlook
By Mark Friedman
November 29, 2024

Unionists across the United States are organizing a campaign to get fellow trade unionists, elected officials, and others to sign a letter to President Biden demanding he remove Cuba from the U.S. list of "State Sponsors of Terrorism."

“On October 30th, for the 32nd consecutive year, the #UnitedNations General Assembly overwhelmingly condemned the U.S. embargo on #Cuba. Once again, the global community stood in near-unanimous solidarity with the #Cuban people, recognizing that this decades-long policy is not only cruel and dated but also in direct violation of international law."
