The head of state also shared a video of the Mexican President giving his usual morning press conference, in which he condemns the US policy against Cuba.

Diaz-Canel said that the blockade must be addressed as a crucial human rights-related issue because it undoubtedly is a violation of those rights; nobody can block a people for political and ideological reasons; it is inhumane, he noted.
