This Senedd:
1. Expresses its solidarity with the people of Cuba.
2. Notes that 185 countries voted against the US blockade of Cuba at the UN, with only the USA and Israel supporting its continuation.
3. Further notes that this inhumane policy has been in place for more than 60 years causing severe shortages of food, medicines and fuel.
4. Recognises that despite the blockade, Cuba has made real achievements in health and education policy with the results widely applauded by UNESCO and WHO.
5. Believes that the Welsh Government should develop links with Cuba in areas of mutual interest.
