Cuba set to submit resolution on us trade embargo to un

According to recent reports, Cuba is planning to submit a resolution to the United Nations (UN) General Assembly calling for an end to the US trade embargo against the island nation.

The resolution, which is expected to be presented during the upcoming UN General Assembly session in September, is likely to be supported by a majority of countries, as many nations have long criticized the US embargo as a violation of international law and a hindrance to Cuba's economic development.

The US embargo, which was imposed in 1960, prohibits American companies from doing business with Cuba and restricts the sale of goods and services to the island. The embargo has had a significant impact on Cuba's economy, limiting its access to international markets and hindering its ability to import goods and services.

Cuba has repeatedly called for the embargo to be lifted, arguing that it is a violation of its sovereignty and a hindrance to its economic development. The country has also accused the US of using the embargo as a tool to exert political pressure and undermine its socialist government.

The UN General Assembly has previously passed resolutions calling for the US to lift the embargo, but the US has consistently vetoed these resolutions in the UN Security Council.

It remains to be seen whether the US will change its stance on the embargo in response to Cuba's latest resolution. However, the move is likely to be seen as a significant step forward in Cuba's efforts to challenge the embargo and promote greater international cooperation and understanding.
