Panamanian workers gathered at the XXI Ordinary Congress of the National Central of Workers of Panama (CNTP) expressed their rejection of the blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba for over six decades.
In a resolution approved during the significant event, delegates from across the isthmus condemned the hostile actions of successive U.S. governments aimed at destroying the triumphant Cuban Revolution of 1959. They highlighted the current energy emergency situation in Cuba, partly attributed to the lack of fuel as a result of this inhumane policy, and called for solidarity.
Despite the difficulties, it was acknowledged in the text evaluated in committees that the Cuban government and people continue to work tirelessly to ensure the health, education, employment, security, and food of their population. It was emphasized that Cuba is one of the countries with the highest levels of human, educational, social, scientific, and technological development in Latin America, serving as a model in a region marked by social inequality and poverty.
The CNTP conveyed its fraternal and supportive backing to the president of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel, for his tireless efforts in favor of the well-being and peace of the Cuban people. On the last day of the Congress, resolutions supporting Nicaragua and Venezuela were also approved, countries facing economic, political, and media manipulation campaign aggressions in the context of neoliberal models, according to official documents.
