Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued a statement commemorating the one-year anniversary of the July 11, 2021 historic anti-communist regime protests that took place throughout Cuba. Rubio penned an op-ed for ADN America reaffirming that America should stand in support of the Cuban people’s quest for basic freedoms and liberties, as well as outlined practical steps the U.S. can take to demonstrate that support for the Cuban people.
“One year ago, the Cuban dictatorship’s worst nightmare became a reality,” Rubio said. “The citizens of the island it holds hostage peacefully united in repudiation of their failed Marxist policies. With the hymn of ‘Patria y Vida,’ afro-Cuban artists ignited a movement that inspired everyday Cubans of all ages to stand up in condemnation of decades of repression, censorship, indoctrination, and human rights abuses. We have a moral duty to support the more than 1,000 civilians, many of whom are underaged, who remain arbitrarily detained because of their protest against tyranny.”
“Rather than hold the dictatorship accountable, President Biden and his administration have granted the Castro/Díaz-Canel regime unimaginable concessions,” Rubio continued. “I reaffirm my commitment to ensuring Congress does all it can to support the people of Cuba. It is essential that they receive information untainted by the regime’s apparatus. I urge my colleagues in the Senate to swiftly pass my PATRIA Y VIDA Act, which would help Cubans acquire uncensored access to the internet.”
RUBIO: HACE UN AÑO, LA PEOR PESADILLA DE LA DICTADURA CUBANA SE VOLVIÓ REALIDAD
Washington, D.C. — El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) emitió un comunicado conmemorando el primer aniversario de las históricas protestas pacíficas en contra del régimen comunista en Cuba. Rubio escribió una columna de opinión en ADN Cuba reafirmando que EE.UU. debería respaldar al pueblo cubano en su lucha por las libertades básicas, así como también resaltó los pasos prácticos que EE.UU. puede tomar para demostrar dicho apoyo.
“Hace un año, la peor pesadilla de la dictadura cubana se hizo realidad”, Rubio dijo. “Los ciudadanos de la isla que el régimen tiene captiva se unieron pacíficamente en repudio a sus fallidas políticas marxistas. Con el himno de ‘Patria y Vida’ artistas afrocubanos crearon un movimiento que inspiró a cubanos de todas las edades a denunciar décadas de represión, censura, adoctrinamiento y abusos contra los derechos humanos. Tenemos el deber moral de apoyar a los más de 1.000 civiles, muchos de ellos menores de edad, que fueron detenidos arbitrariamente por su protesta en contra de la tiranía en la isla”.
“En vez de responsabilizar a la dictadura, el presidente Biden y su administración le han otorgado al régimen de Castro/Díaz-Canel concesiones inimaginables”, Rubio continuó. “Reafirmo mi compromiso de asegurarme que el Congreso haga todo lo posible para apoyar al pueblo de Cuba. Es fundamental que ellos reciban información sin censura que no haya sido contaminada por el aparato represivo del régimen. Insto a mis colegas en el senado de EE.UU. a pasar rápidamente mi legislación PATRIA Y VIDA, la cual ayudaría a los cubanos a tener acceso sin censura al internet”.
