PNN – Lebanon’s Hezbollah strongly condemned the US economic blockade against Cuba and Washington’s move to cut off Venezuelan oil to the country.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, citing Al-Manar, The Arab and International Relations Department of Lebanon’s Hezbollah issued a statement strongly condemning the US economic blockade against Cuba and Washington’s action to cut off Venezuelan oil to the country, emphasizing that this action has dangerous consequences and threatens to stop the country’s economy and shut down vital services for Cuban citizens.
Hezbollah in Lebanon added: What the US President has done is a crazy step in the continuation of the series of actions he is taking against many countries and nations that oppose dependence and submission.
Hezbollah of Lebanon emphasized: While declaring solidarity with the resistant Cuban nation against the pride and arrogance of America and emphasizing the right of the Cuban nation to benefit from natural resources, we call on the free countries of the world to unite and stand with one voice against the oppressive America and prevent this country from unilaterally exerting pressure on the countries of the world and their peoples.
The American newspaper The Wall Street Journal, citing informed sources, wrote in a report: The Trump administration is trying to weaken the Cuban government by cutting off Cuba’s oil supplies, which previously came to the country from Venezuela.
The Wall Street Journal added in the report that the Trump administration believes that the Cuban government has never been so weak, especially after it lost its key ally, Nicolás Maduro (Venezuelan President), and Washington’s assessment shows that the country’s economy is on the verge of collapse.
The American newspaper The Wall Street Journal previously claimed in a report that the US oil blockade against Venezuela is pushing Cuba towards economic collapse.
The American media outlet referred to decades of sanctions and economic blockade of the Latin American country, adding: Even before the blockade of Venezuela, Cuba was facing food shortages, widespread power outages, and a wave of immigration, and now it faces the risk of losing cheap oil to the government of Nicolas Maduro.
