Miguel D\u00edaz-Canel, First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and President of the Republic, addressed the recent sanctions imposed by the United States government on entities linked to key sectors of the country\u2019s development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cuban leader remarked that the list \u201cwill be endless,\u201d since \u201cwe are millions \u2014 in Cuba and around the world \u2014 writing the great odyssey of Cuban resistance with talent, patriotism and solidarity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Foreign Minister Bruno Rodr\u00edguez also warned via his X account of the new offensive by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio against institutions and individuals in the Caribbean nation, part of Washington\u2019s policy of maximum economic suffocation and collective punishment against the Cuban people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cHe will fail in his attempt to break us. We will never renounce our sovereignty and independence, won over nearly 70 years of Revolution.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
On Thursday, Rubio announced sanctions against 11 entities and individuals linked to the development of Cuba\u2019s military capabilities and the exploitation of the island\u2019s mineral resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The U.S. Department of State specified that it had designated eight institutions and three individuals. The entities designated in the defense sector are the Simulator Research and Development Center, the Naval Research and Development Center, the Infantry Weapons Research and Development Center, and the \u201cGrito de Baire\u201d Research, Development, and Production Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the nickel sector \u2014 a key industry for the Caribbean nation \u2014 sanctions were imposed on the Technical Services Company for Computing, Communications, and Electronics; the Nickel Engineering and Projects Company; the Captain Alberto Fern\u00e1ndez Montes de Oca Nickel Research Center; and Pinares S.A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sanctions are based on Executive Order 14404, signed by President Donald Trump on May 1, which expands the range of restrictions and pressures against the island in pursuit of the explicit goal of regime change in Cuba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
