„Presiuni fără precedent”. Cuba acuză SUA că amenință statele care o susțin la ONU

Cuba's foreign minister accused the U.S. of unprecedented pressure on countries to oppose a UN resolution calling for an end to the U.S. embargo. Rodriguez claimed U.S. officials threatened sanctions and visa denials to those supporting Cuba. The resolution, non-binding, has historically passed with significant support since 1992. The U.S. ambassador to the UN urged nations to vote against it, labeling it a justification for oppression. The vote is scheduled for late October, while the embargo has been in place for over 60 years, with Congress holding the power to lift it.
