“Any attack against Cuba would be a flagrant violation of international law, the UN Charter and undermine regional peace and stability.”
By the Cuba Solidarity Campaign
Recent US military action against Venezuela, together with open threats made against other sovereign nations, including Cuba, has heightened concerns about peace, regional stability and respect for the UN Charter.
Our governments must publicly reaffirm their commitment to international law and oppose any threat or use of military force against Cuba and other sovereign nations.
Sign the Call for Peace and Sovereignty and say no to war and intervention.
Call for Peace and Sovereignty:
We the undersigned express our grave concern at the escalating threat to peace and international law following recent US military action against Venezuela and at open threats made by senior US politicians against other sovereign nations, including Cuba, Colombia, Mexico and the autonomous territory of Greenland.
In this dangerous context, Cuba once again faces heightened threats to its sovereignty, security and right to self-determination. Decades of US hostility – including the ongoing economic blockade – have already caused immense harm to the Cuban people and have been repeatedly condemned by the international community at the United Nations. Cuba, like all sovereign nations, has the right to determine its own political, economic and social system, free from external interference and threats.
Any attack against Cuba would be a flagrant violation of international law, the UN Charter and undermine regional peace and stability.
We therefore call on the British government, European Union and wider international community to publicly:
- reaffirm their commitment to international law and respect for Cuba’s sovereignty
- oppose any threat of US military action against Cuba
