Prime Minister John Briceño

“The people of Haiti deserve our urgent and united support to completely expunge the criminal gangs that have attempted to overrun that country and to ensure that they are brought to justice. A workable path from Haiti exist, but it requires sustained security assistance, resources and a coherent international response. We must act now. Excellencies, each nation must be free to define its own path. The International Court of Justice has confirmed that self determination is a peremptory norm. We must end the denial of this right to people of western Sahara whose plight the world continues to ignore. The economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States of American against Cuba must end and Cuba must immediately be removed from the list of countries that allegedly sponsors terrorism. It is illegal, inhumane and contrary to the UN Charter.”
