CARICOM Statement on the civil Protests in Cuba

Jan 09, 2026

The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) has taken note of the protests taking place in Cuba brought about by socio-economic challenges, further exacerbated by the effects of the Covid 19 pandemic and the impact of natural hazards.

The Community calls for the cessation of violence and vandalism and for a return to calm and peaceful assembly and dialogue.

The Community reiterates its calls for the immediate lifting of the trade, financial and economic sanctions as recently reiterated by the United Nations General Assembly.
