In that piteous yet dignified message, our Cuban sister speaks to us about the elderly Cubans who are “dying prematurely because the blockade prevents the arrival of medications for heart conditions, high blood pressure and diabetes”; the new born babies that are fighting for their lives because “incubators in Cuba have had to be shut down due to a lack of fuel”; and the “terrorism through hunger” that is currently being inflicted on the Cuban people through a deliberate US policy to deprive Cuba of food and energy supplies.

Without a doubt, the current situation in our sister #Caribbean nation of #Cuba constitutes a severe humanitarian crisis that demands a significant and meaningful response from all people and governments of conscience.
