Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Ambassador Ana Maria de Oliveira, Permanent Representative of Angola to the United Nations and other International Organizations, on Tuesday Geneva, Switzerland, met on with her Cuban counterpart, Rodolfo Beni\u0301tez Verson.<\/b><\/p>\n

The meeting focused on assessing the increase in cooperation on the multilateral agenda of the Geneva international ecosystem, as well as within the United Nations system.<\/p>\n

According to a note from the Angolan diplomatic representation in Geneva, the two diplomats highlighted the importance of collaborative work and strengthening institutional ties to face current global challenges.<\/p>\n

In this regard, they agreed that the work in the Human Rights Council (HRC) is very intense and, considering that the human rights situation in the 193 UN member states is subject to periodic evaluations, it is fundamental that countries join efforts and cooperate for mutual benefit.<\/p>\n

In fact, the Cuban diplomat announced that next week his country will be evaluated by the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD), a body composed of 18 independent UN experts that monitors the implementation of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination by member states.<\/p>\n

The Cuban diplomat declared that his government counts on Angola’s contribution, especially in evaluating the very difficult situation of the economic and financial blockade that they have resisted for 67 years and, at this moment, the sanctions that the United States of America has imposed on Cuba, which are at their highest level in history.<\/p>\n

Angola has consistently reiterated its position against the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba, considering it a measure with serious consequences for the Cuban population.<\/p>\n

Angola has consistently reiterated its position against the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba, considering it a measure with serious consequences for the people of Cuba.<\/p>\n

Last Friday (10), Angola expressed its opposition to the current economic, commercial and financial embargo against Cuba, including its extraterritorial application, which imposes serious humanitarian consequences on the Cuban people.<\/p>\n

The Angolan diplomat recalled that the embargo restricts access to essential goods, including food, medicines, medical supplies and fuel, while limiting trade, investment and remittances, directly affecting health, education and the enjoyment of fundamental Human Rights.<\/p>\n

She reiterated that unilateral coercive measures harm human dignity, violate International Law and prevent the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n

\u201cAngola emphasizes that these measures harm the rights of those affected by environmental issues, particularly the most vulnerable\u201d.<\/p>\n
