Cubans in Panama: End US Blockade
A group of Cubans resident in Panama, members of the Circle of Study of the thoughts of Jose Marti, demanded the end of the US economic, financial and commercial blockade on the island Friday.

Cubans have suffered many needs brought by the cruel blockade, besides the serious damages to the national economy, losses valued at 86 billion dollars, their communiqué highlights.

The document recalls that Washington has hindered export of food to Cuba and has refused to allow sale of medicines with US ingredients, which negatively affects nutritional level and health.

Similarly, the group expressed support for the recent overwhelming UN vote rejecting the genocidal blockade maintained by successive US administrations against the Caribbean island.
