Cuba denounces a US-organized event at the UN, exposing it as a tool for a hostile narrative against the island. This gathering, utilizing UN facilities, aims to promote an interventionist agenda and distract from the severe impact of the US blockade.

Cuban diplomats highlighted that the event, held in contravention of UN rules, is a clandestine maneuver. It featured selective groups to spread misinformation about Cuba, bypassing the UN's official agenda.

The UN Secretariat's failure to prevent this meeting despite warnings is a concern. This action undermines the principles of the United Nations and overlooks the humanitarian crisis inflicted upon the Cuban people by the blockade and energy siege.
