Cuban ambassadors ask Canada to renew its rejection of U.S. embargo and fuel blockade
Cuba is urging Canada to maintain its public opposition to the longstanding U.S. embargo as Washington increases pressure on countries that support Cuba.
Cuban Ambassador Rodrigo Malmierca Diaz said he is confident Canada will continue supporting Cuba, as it has in the past.
Malmierca Diaz said the blockade and its intensification are, in practice, killing people.
The United Nations will vote next week on a Cuban motion, while Global Affairs Canada is still deciding how to vote.
