January 6, 2015

Focus Area

By Cindy Domingo, Cuba and Bolivarian Alliance Issues Committee

The Cuba and Bolivarian Alliance Issues Committee celebrates our peoples’ victory and commends President Barack Obama in reestablishing diplomatic relations between the US and Cuba governments and the release of the remaining members of the Cuban Five, Antonio Guerrero, Ramon Labanino and Gerardo Hernandez. 

This momentous step comes after five decades of failed US foreign policy towards Cuba and the further isolation of the US in the Caribbean and Latin America.  See the WILPF US statement on resumption of relations. And the Facebook link.

Now more than ever, it is important to thank the President for his actions and to let your Congressional delegation know that you want the US blockade lifted now.  Contact your delegation today!

WILPF is a member of the coalition led by the Latin American Working Group.
