Cubans residing in Europe called today from the Together X Cuba platform to carry out various actions against the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on the Island.
“For Cuba, for our homeland, for the Cuban family: Down with the blockade”, reflects on YouTube the audiovisual material of the launch of the campaign, which collects images of mobilizations in various parts of the planet to reject the siege that Washington applies to the of the Antilles for more than 60 years, reports a dispatch from the Prensa Latina news agency dated Paris.
According to the promoters, the call is to develop activities against the blockade by associations and individuals and to share them with the channel Juntos X Cuba for dissemination on the social network itself, in which the platform transmits a program every Friday.
In this sense, they asked to send videos and photos of the actions carried out to an email, and specified that the campaign is not limited to a specific time, since it will be active in the coming months.
At the beginning of February, moderators of the platform told Prensa Latina that their objective is to combat the disinformation and manipulation with which issues related to the Caribbean island are frequently presented on social networks.
José Conde, resident in Germany; Ada Galano, in Italy; and Danilo Campos, in France, defined the proposal -which they coordinate together with compatriots in Austria, Spain, Greece and the United Kingdom- as multidimensional, since it includes a channel on YouTube, contributes to solidarity actions with the Caribbean country and organizes events .
“Here the only thing we do not do is speak ill of the Cuban Revolution,” Campos said to summarize the will of the promoters of the initiative to work in defense of their homeland and to support it in the face of multiple challenges, from the blockade imposed by the United States for more than six decades until the COVID-19 pandemic.
