Florida, Camagüey, October 31.- The more than two thousand members of the National Association of Small Farmers (ANAP), in the municipality of Florida, joined their voices with those of the rest of the world to condemn the permanence of the economic, commercial and financial system imposed by the Government of the United States against the Cuban people for more than 60 years.
Just as dozens of representatives from other countries on the planet did on Tuesday and Wednesday on the platform of the United Nations (UN), the peasants denounced, once again, the hatred of this genocidal policy that prevents them from obtaining resources, the machinery and credits necessary for agri-food development in Cuba.
Luis Enrique Arribas Rodríguez, municipal president of the ANAP and main spokesperson of the agrarian organization in Florida, assured that there will be no force capable of taking away from the peasant the rights given by the Revolution, and reiterated the will to assume every day, with greater commitment, the sacred duty of producing for the people.
The more than 240 measures to tighten the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States against Cuba, signed by Donald Trump's administration starting in 2021, meant a devastating blow to Cuban agriculture and livestock by stopping the entry of food, animals, medicines, fertilizers, pesticides and technologies, among other inputs and goods in high demand in the productive processes of the agricultural field.
Right now, when this criminal policy of the United States government once again faces global rejection, the flag of resistance and peasant dignity is raised again, on the top of Turquino, in the proud hands of Niceto Pérez, Sabino Pupo and Fidel Castro Ruz.
