The United States will have to compensate Cuba for the losses incurred during the decades of the blockade, the Chairman of the State Duma said.

At the plenary meeting, State Duma deputies unanimously supported the draft resolution , which called for “an immediate and complete end to the economic, trade and financial blockade of the Republic of Cuba , organized by the leadership of the United States of America and which has become a method of multifaceted pressure on the Cuban people.”

“The world must be multipolar, and the sanctions that the United States of America announced to Cuba will not lead to anything good. The US will still have to pay the costs. This is a lot of money: $159 billion. This is the assessment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba,” said Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin.

He recalled that last year the UN General Assembly considered the issue of lifting these sanctions for the thirtieth time, and every year there are more and more supporters of this decision. There are only two countries left that oppose it: the USA and Israel.
