Belmopan, May 23, 2024.
The Government of Belize is deeply concerned with the arbitrary decision of the Government of the United States of America to continue to list the Republic of Cuba on the U.S. State Department’s website as State Sponsors of Terrorism (SSOT).
The Government of Belize denounces these baseless accusations as there is no evidence that the Government of the Republic of Cuba is involved in any such activities.
The Government of Belize calls on the U.S. Government to immediately remove Cuba from that list, which has caused and continues to cause much suffering to the Cuban people.
The Government of Belize encourages the United States to continue the process for the normalization of their bilateral relations with Cuba. The Government and people of Belize stand in solidarity with the Government and people of the Republic of Cuba. Belize will continue, along with the member states of the Caribbean Community, to call for lifting the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the U.S. Government on Cuba and for the removal of Cuba from the SSOT list.
