Cuban Foreign Minister Disqualifies Nobel Peace Prize Committee

The Cuban Foreign Minister, Bruno Rodríguez, disqualified the Nobel Peace Prize committee today from Havana, stating it awards recognitions to allies of the United States and like-minded governments.

On his account on the social network X, Rodríguez noted that its members are appointed by the politically partisan parliament of a NATO state, arguing that "the #NobelPeacePrize becomes an award for docile allies of the #USA and a megaphone against governments it finds inconvenient."

The Chancellor, in a comprehensive message, questioned from the perspective of an island with over six decades of a U.S. blockade, how in contrast, the committee excludes the repeatedly deserved nominations for the Cuban Medical Brigades.

"They speak in the name of 'Peace,' but remain silent in the face of U.S. aggressive actions against Venezuela and ignore the economic war and the hate campaign against a country that sends doctors, not bombs or marines," argued the head of Cuban diplomacy.

The Caribbean nation's foreign minister denounced the complicity of the awards with actions completely opposed to peace.

In this sense, he mentioned those awarded to Henry Kissinger, Shimon Peres, or the most recent one, promoted by the U.S. Secretary of State, whom he accuses of desperately calling for a military invasion of Venezuela.

"That double standard disqualifies their lessons in democracy," he stated.
