HAVANA, Cuba.- The World Peace Council denounced the aggressive policy of the new US Administration against Cuba, which uses threats and blackmail to try to reverse the revolutionary process on the island.

Through a letter released today by the Cuban Institute of Friendship with Peoples, (ICAP), that organization reiterates the demand to end the United States’ interventionism, which constantly tries to disturb the progress of the Cuban Revolution.

The message by the World Peace Council emphasizes that the speech given by President Donald Trump announcing a turn in the White House´s policy regarding Cuba, constitutes a setback in the process towards the normalization of the relations.

It is also a contrast between Washington’s aggressiveness in its relations with Latin America with the role played by Cuba in favor of regional and global peace.
