G7 repeats U.S. falsehoods about Cub

Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez said Thursday that a recent Group of Seven (G7) statement ignored the harm caused by the U.S. embargo against Cuba, while endorsing fabricated pretexts for punishing the Caribbean country.



In a post on the social media platform X, Rodriguez said the G7 foreign ministers' statement, released Wednesday after two days of talks in Paris, "omits the reality of the cruel impact of the blockade, the economic war and the energy blockade imposed by the U.S. government against Cuba."



Rodriguez described U.S. policy toward Cuba as "genocidal" and a "flagrant, massive and systematic" violation of the human rights of Cubans and the sovereignty of third countries.
