Cuba Denounces \u201cExtraterritorial and Illegal\u201d US Sanctions on Chinese Companies<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe planned agenda will allow for a review of matters of mutual interest and the deepening of cooperation toward building a Cuba-China community with a shared future. The visit will take place from November 10 to 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cuba\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs indicated that the meetings will bolster the high level of political trust between Havana and Beijing. The visit will also serve to advance the bilateral agenda and seek joint solutions in areas of common interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During a previous visit to Beijing in February, Rodr\u00edguez Parrilla emphasized that high-level consensus serves as the fundamental strategic pillar of the bilateral relationship. According to the Foreign Minister, these agreements have strengthened strategic communication, guided cooperation, and provided significant momentum to the ties between the two countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cuba has repeatedly acknowledged China\u2019s support and solidarity, particularly within multilateral forums and through collaboration across various sectors. The island has underscored that this backing is especially significant given the intensification of the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the United States against Cuba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The visit follows China\u2019s rejection of the latest round of U.S. sanctions targeting individuals and entities involved in cooperation with Cuba, including two Chinese companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Guo Jiakun, a representative from China\u2019s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stated that cooperation between Beijing and Havana is open, transparent, and legitimate. Furthermore, he expressed China\u2019s opposition to unilateral sanctions, noting that they lack any basis in international law and have not been authorized by the United Nations Security Council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He rejected the so-called long-arm jurisdiction and Washington\u2019s actions aimed at interfering with or hindering cooperation between the two countries. The spokesperson reiterated China\u2019s support for Cuba\u2019s efforts to safeguard its sovereignty and oppose external interference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cuban Foreign Minister described the sanctions against two Chinese companies as part of a policy of economic strangulation directed at the Cuban people. In a public statement, Rodr\u00edguez Parrilla asserted that these measures serve as further proof of the extraterritorial and illegal nature of the U.S. blockade against the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFurthermore, they seek to hinder and sabotage the strategic, multifaceted, and legitimate cooperation that exists between China and Cuba,\u201d the head of Cuban diplomacy noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The U.S. sanctions targeted the Chinese companies CEIEC and Beijing H&C Technologies. Washington accuses them of supplying military components and equipment to Cuba via the Cuban firm Duna S.A.\u2014information that has been circulated by international news agencies and cited in reports regarding the measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rodr\u00edguez Parrilla has maintained that socialist China is establishing itself as a bastion of peace and multilateralism, as well as a source of stability, balance, and opportunity on a global scale. During his visit in February, the Foreign Minister described the Asian nation as a beacon of hope for the Global South, particularly for Latin America and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cuban Foreign Minister also highlighted the historical significance of the ties between the two nations. Cuba was the first country in the Western Hemisphere to establish relations with China, and the first to forge a \u201ccommunity with a shared future\u201d within their bilateral relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This week\u2019s visit comes at a time of heightened diplomatic coordination between Havana and Beijing, amid new coercive measures from the United States and China\u2019s reaffirmation that it will protect the legitimate rights and interests of its companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
