During the 11th Parliamentary Forum of BRICS, a bloc initially composed of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, and recently expanded, Cuban deputy Alberto Núñez strongly rejected Washington’s blockade against the island, which he described as a “suffocating economic war.”

At the beginning of his speech, Núñez conveyed the gratitude of the island’s Parliament to the organizers and reiterated that Cuba’s participation as an associate country of BRICS represents an opportunity to build a more just multilateral order based on solidarity and cooperation among States with different levels of development.

The vice president of the International Relations Committee of the National Assembly and the Council of State of Cuba presented his country’s health model as a concrete and effective alternative.
