Official Declaration Against Anti-Jewish Hate Crimes

The Cuban National Congress expresses its most energetic condemnation of the hate crimes recently perpetrated in the United States against members of the Jewish community, including the attack that ended the lives of two employees of the Jewish Embassy, and like the criminal attack committed by an Egyptian citizen who threw Molotov cocktails against a peaceful protest of Jewish people.

These acts of violence are not only morally repugnant, but also represent a direct threat to the fundamental principles of coexistence, religious liberty, and respect for human dignity that must be enforced in all democratic society.

As an organization committed to democratic values, justice, and human rights, the Cuban National Congress plainly expresses solidarity with the victims, their families, and all of the Jewish community in the United States and abroad.

We reaffirm our total rejection of antisemitism in all its forms, as well as any other ideology of hate, intolerance, political violence, or religious violence as comparable to Castro-Communism and all political demonstrations of Marxist-Leninist or totalitarian origin.

We call upon the authorities of the United States to act with the greatest level of diligence to put those that are responsible for these acts to justice and to guarantee that they effectively protect the rights of all citizens—regardless of their creed, race, or nationality—to live in peace and in safety.

Committed as we are in the permanent fight for liberty and the rights of our nation, we also support the fight of other peoples and raise our own voice not only to defend the rights of the Cuban people, but also in defense of these universal values that unite us as human beings.
