ACNU Denounces U.S. Fallacies Used to Justify Aggression Against Cuba

In an official statement released this Tuesday, the Cuban United Nations Association (ACNU), founded in 1947, denounced the fallacies spread by officials of the U.S. administration to sustain a narrative that presents Cuba as a threat to the security of the United States.

The organization described allegations regarding supposed Cuban drones capable of attacking U.S. vessels, Key West, or the Guantánamo Naval Base as “laughable.”

The document recalled that Cuba maintains a well-founded pacifist tradition, defends multilateralism, and promoted the Proclamation of Latin America and the Caribbean as a Zone of Peace, which was approved in Havana during the Second Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States in 2014.

The ACNU warned that military aggression against the island would have extremely grave consequences for regional peace and would cause the deaths of children, adolescents, young people, women, older adults, and individuals in vulnerable situations.

The association condemned the strengthening of the economic, commercial, financial, technological, and energy blockade, which it described as a criminal measure that strangles the population and causes deaths through the deprivation of food, medicines, and essential services.

The text demanded that the U.S. administration cease the fabrication of falsehoods intended to mislead public opinion and undermine the sovereignty and independence of Cuba. It called for respect for international law and for the Cuban people's decision to build their own destiny without external interference.

The ACNU urged the Secretary-General of the United Nations, directors of international organizations, heads of state and government, civil society, and the American people to demand that the Trump administration suspend, with immediate effect, the measures adopted in the Executive Orders of January 29 and May 1, 2026.

The organization made a call to raise voices to avert war, demand Cuba's removal from the unilateral list of state sponsors of terrorism, and lift the economic blockade.

“We urge not to become accomplices to the genocide of this resilient, loving, virtuous, joyful, peaceful, resistant, supportive, humanistic, and spiritual people,” the statement concluded.
