The serious impacts of the unilateral coercive measures imposed by the United States on Cuba were denounced in Vienna, Austria, by Cuban representatives during the 67th session of Working Group B of the Preparatory Commission for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO).

In particular, the economic, commercial and financial blockade affects the full participation of the Caribbean nation in the Organisation’s technical and scientific cooperation mechanisms, Cubaminrex stated.

Despite these limitations, Cuba reiterated its firm commitment to multilateralism and to a world free of nuclear weapons.

Thus, it reaffirmed its pacifist vocation and its active role as a State Party to the Treaty, the digital portal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared.
