"We denounce a terrorist attack with Molotov cocktails against our Embassy in Paris," the official said. "I hold the U.S. Government responsible for its continuous campaigns against our country that encourage these behaviors and for calls for violence, with impunity, from its territory," the Foreign Minister added.

The attacks come as the international community has mobilized in support of the Cuban revolution and demanded an end to the U.S. blockade in the aftermath of the July 11 protests.
On Monday Cuban Americans and the U.S. citizens from the Bridges of Love initiative demonstrated against the blockade in Washington but were confronted with far-right people who reportedly attacked two Russian journalists while they were covering the demonstrations.
