Cities of more than thirty countries were the scene of the weekend of activities to demand the end of the blockade that the United States has maintained for six decades and is intensifying today against Cuba.

The protesters also denounced the destabilizing campaigns orchestrated mainly from that northern power to promote a regime change and interrupt the process of transformation promoted by the island since 1959.
Members of solidarity groups, people of good will and Cubans residing in nations of various latitudes held marches, car and bicycle caravans, rallies, cultural meetings and debates on social networks.
The day before, the solidarity initiative Puentes de Amor developed a mobilization in Washington that demanded that the president of the United States, Joe Biden, lift the sanctions that seek to crush the Cuban family and hinder the development of the country.
Similar actions were recorded in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Albuquerque and Minnesota, among other US cities, while in Ottawa and Vancouver, Canada, car and bicycle tours were held on Saturday in support of Cuba.
The call had a special response in Latin America and the Caribbean, in countries such as Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, Paraguay, El Salvador, Panama, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Brazil and Mexico.
In the latter, the José Martí Association of Cuban Residents issued a statement in which it described the blockade as genocide and demanded the immediate lifting of that siege and the end of the aggressions against the island. From Italy, Austria, Belgium, Finland and Germany, among other European nations, actions were also reported this weekend, at the close of the day We Have Memory, convened by the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples against terrorism and the blockade.
Dozens of British and Cuban activists residing in the United Kingdom came from London and Birmingham to the port of Bristol to demonstrate their support for the right of this Caribbean nation to its independence, sovereignty and self-determination.
