The former president of Bolivia, Evo Morales, expressed his repudiation of the unilateral coercive measures of the Donald Trump administration against Cuba on Sunday, the US decision to reintroduce and extend the Restricted List, which vetoes certain transactions with companies on the island.

“We repudiate the unilateral coercive measures that the new United States Government has reinstated against the Cuban people. The aim of these measures is to punish foreign investors and Cuban companies in their transactions outside the country,” Morales wrote on the social network X.

The indigenous leader highlighted the firmness and dignity of the response of the government of the Cuban Revolution, and added that the Caribbean island will “emerge triumphant from these attacks.”

In addition, other governments of the region have rejected the US decision. Yesterday, Venezuela’s Foreign Minister Yvan Gil expressed his solidarity with the Cuban government and people, as well as its repudiation of the decision announced by the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio.

The Venezuelan FM said these measures is an act of useless vengeance against a people that has shown, time and again, that it does not bend to blackmail or pressure, and added that the US imperial regime has tried everything: blockade, sanctions, aggression, sabotage, and even terrorism.

For its part, the Cuban government rejected the imposing of these sanctions saying that hardening criminal measures to the Cuban people will cause greater shortages, separation and increased emigration flow to the United States.
