BA'S REPORT TO THE UN SECRETARY GENERAL ON GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTION 57/11

"Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States of  America  against Cuba"

Havana, 8 July 2003

INTRODUCTION

For more than 40 years, the Cuban people have confronted  the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed  by  the government of the United States of America, one of  the  most cruel, inhuman and prolonged policies of hostility  endured by any people in the history of human  civilization.

------------------

From the very moment of the triumph of the Revolution,  when the people of Cuba made a reality of the enjoyment  of  their right to self-determination by destroying the  foundations of the neocolonial regime maintained on the  island by the United States, the U.S. authorities  imposed  various economic sanctions against Cuba
