The Cuban government confirmed that it will lead the United Nations (UN) Decolonization Committee's resolution on Monday, advocating for Puerto Rico's right to self-determination and independence. This move comes as the Donald Trump administration pressures Puerto Rico for political and economic changes, and even threatens a new US military intervention.
Cuba's position on the colonial issue of Puerto Rico remains unchanged
Cuba's ambassador to the UN stated that Cuba's position on the colonial issue of Puerto Rico remains unchanged. The resolution is part of the committee's efforts to address the island's status and promote its right to independence.
The Cuban government has consistently supported Puerto Rico's self-determination, and this latest move reaffirms its commitment to the cause.
