Iran condemns US sanctions on Cuba, welcomes UN resolution
Iran’s Foreign Ministry has welcomed the adoption of a United Nations General Assembly resolution condemning US economic sanctions against Cuba, denouncing Washington’s continued enforcement of “illegal and inhumane” measures on the island nation.
Tehran - BORNA - Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said the sanctions, in place for more than six decades, have systematically targeted the fundamental rights of the Cuban people and obstructed the country’s development.
“The unjust US sanctions against Cuba, which, for more than six decades, have targeted the fundamental rights of the Cuban people and the development of this country, are not only a blatant violation of the principles of the United Nations Charter and international law, but, due to their impact on the Cuban people’s enjoyment of fundamental human rights, constitute a crime against humanity.”
