Havana, Cuba.- Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel said today that US plans against the Caribbean island and the Venezuelan people are perverse and highly interfering.

‘Pronouncements by officials of the US Government against Cuba and Venezuela, have the same objective and are part of the perverse, arrogant and interfering Monroe policy of the North’, the Head of State wrote in his Twitter account.

‘Nations with dignity will defend independence and sovereignty,’ he added.

In the speech celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution, on January 1st, the first secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC), Raul Castro reaffirmed that no threat will stop us from being friends of Venezuela.

He warned that the repeated declaration of Venezuela as a threat to the national security of the United States, the calls for a military coup against his government, can only lead to serious instability and unpredictable consequences, said the head of the PCC.
