Cuba: no participation in conflicts
The Havana authorities deny the statements of the Cuban ambassador in Moscow, according to whom his government is not opposed to the legal participation of its citizens in the Russian war in Ukraine. “The unequivocal and firm position of the Cuban government, in accordance with national legislation, is against the participation of Cuban citizens in any conflict, mercenarism and human trafficking,” Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno wrote on Rodriguez.
The Foreign Ministry had announced that it had discovered an organization that was recruiting Cuban citizens to fight in the Russian army. Cuba underlined that it is extraneous to the war conflict in Ukraine and clarified that it will act “forcefully against anyone, from the national territory, who participates in any form of human trafficking for the purpose of recruitment or mercenaryism, to ensure that Cuban citizens make use of weapons against any country”.
