Cuban Resistance Assembly exposes regime’s complicity in Ukraine invasion

SAN LUIS POTOSÍ, Mexico.- The Cuban Resistance Assembly (ARC) On Monday, the Cuban regime exposed its complicity and support for Vladimir Putin, which is evident in the participation of Cuban citizens in the invasion of Ukraine.

He also noted that since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Cuban communist regime has received 500 million euros from the European Union.

“The exhibition is designed to demonstrate to the press and parliamentarians the reality of the Cuban intervention and its alliance with Russia, which has been ignored by many European leaders,” the statement said.

The ARC, in this regard, urged the government of Lithuania and its Parliament, like Poland and Sweden, to suspend the European Union’s Agreement on Political Dialogue and Cooperation with Cuba and the annual payments of 150 million euros to the Cuban dictatorship.

“Cuba has been a puppet of the Soviet communist regime in Africa and Latin America since Soviet times. The terrible actions of the Havana regime against Cuban democrats in recent years, in particular the sending of thousands of Cubans into the ranks of Putin’s armed forces in the war of occupation to kill Ukrainians, eliminates the possibility of cooperation of the European Union with Cuba in all areas,” Zingeris said.
