Cuban Organizations
Condemn U.S. Military
Action On Iraq
Many Cuban organizations
on Wednesday condemned
the U.S.-led war against
Iraq on the eve of the
fifth anniversary of the
military invasion.
In a joint declaration,
Cuban organizations
including the Cuban
Peace Movement and
Sovereignty of the
Countries, and
Solidarity Organization
with the Countries of
Africa, Asia and Latin
America, expressed
solidarity with Iraq,
where tens of thousands
of people have died
during five years of
violence.
Condemning the U.S.-led
military action which
started in March 2003
without UN consent, the
declaration said that
"among the worse war
crimes" were those
committed in prisons at
Abu Ghraib in Baghdad
and Guantanamo in
eastern Cuba.
The declaration also
accused European
governments of
complicity in secret
transfer of prisoners.
The declaration demanded
an unconditional pullout
of U.S. troops and their
allies and called on the
international community
to defend Iraq's peace
rights.
