#OFF THE LIST
REMOVE CUBA FROM THE US STATE SPONSORS OF TERRORISM LIST
Your Messages
Together with 58 of my parliamentary colleagues I signed Early Day Motion 1550 which supports the normalisation of relations between the US and Cuba by removing the island from the ‘state sponsors of terrorism’ list. I urge the US to accept the result of the vote in the UN General Assembly calling for an end to the unjustifiable long running economic and trade blockade and sanctions against Cuba that is causing such unnecessary hardships to the Cuban people. Now is the time to seize the opportunity to do the right thing and recognise the considered view of overwhelming majority of the international community in seeking to lift the blockade of Cuba with immediate effect.
Grahame Morris, MP for Easington (United Kingdom)
The USA has the temerity to accuse Cuba of terrorism... using that to tighten the blockade screws even further, and overriding the very slight moves made by Obama. What was the reason? Because there were ELN guerrillas in Havana. But why were they there? For peace talks with the Colombian government, supported by the Cuban and Norwegian governments. You really couldn’t make it up.
Kevin Courtney, Chair of Cuba Solidarity Campaign (United Kingdom)
It would be more accurate to describe Cuba as a state sponsor of peace given its historic role in hosting peace talks.
Paula Barker, MP for Liverpool Riverside (United Kingdom)
Mick Lynch, RMT General Secretary (United Kingdom)
There is no justification for keeping Cuba on the State Sponsors of Terrorism list. I hope the US Government can do the right thing – take Cuba off the list, end the illegal blockade and move towards peace and cooperation.
Mick Whelan, ASLEF General Secretary (United Kingdom)
As Colombian President Gustavo Petro pointed out, Cuba’s placement on this list for its role in hosting Colombia’s peace talks is a profound injustice. I urge the United States to take Cuba off the list.
Kenny MacAskill, MP for East Lothian (United Kingdom)
Daniel Kebede, NEU General Secretary (United Kingdom)
John McDonnell MP (United Kingdom)
I urge the US Government to take Cuba, which has helped bring peace to one of Latin America’s most troubled countries, off the State Sponsors of Terrorism list.

We should all join hands with Cuba in solidarity to end the inhumane, unjust US blockade

Barbara Plant, GMB President (United Kingdom)
The continued US unilateral designation of Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism only serves to justify and extend the illegal and debilitating US blockade of Cuba. It is shameful that Cuba, which has played such a significant role in bringing peace to one of the region’s most troubled countries, and itself has been the victim of a number of acts of terrorism, should be placed on such a list.
Rob Miller, Director Cuba Solidarity Campaign (United Kingdom)
Cuba has suffered over sixty years of punishment for daring to make this beautiful country and the lives of its citizens better - to end poverty and to educate. It’s time for this injustice to end; it’s immoral, unjust and pathetic. End the blockade!
Andrew Hudd, ASLEF Vice President (United Kingdom)
There are no grounds for considering Cuba a terrorist state, or one sponsoring terrorism. There are many states who do fall into this category, but Cuba is not one of them. I write on behalf of the London Region of UNISON, Britain's largest Trade Union.
Phil Thompson, UNISON London Region (United Kingdom)
Steve Turner, Assistant General Secretary of Unite the Union (United Kingdom)
As a Cuban British I witnessed the pain and shortness of my family in Cuba. The US foreign policy toward Cuba is inhumane and we also suffered the financial restrictions of the unilateral inclusion of Cuba in the list of countries sponsoring terrorism, which unable us sending money to Cuba. The pressure is such that stimulate people leaving the country as I am myself part of the brain drain triggered by US blockade. Living here for more than 30 years made me very bitter towards your country when we suppose to be neighbours in science. I think that you can do something as I always believe that women understand better the needs of families Do something for the Cuban families Sincerely
Miriam Palacios-Callender (United Kingdom)
Ian Hodson, BFAWU National President (United Kingdom)
My family never been involved in any terrorist activities why should my ill mum and little nephews pay for something that they haven't done. America is the richest country in the world how can be Cuba a little country in Caribbean dangerous to you!!! Stop this madness and let our people to life in peace and prosperity.
Armando LaO Alvarez (United Kingdom)
Cuba is the victim of US terrorism rather than the sponsor of terrorism. The Cuban Five were unjustly imprisoned for fighting terrorism against their country which only sponsors international solidarity in the struggle for peace, equality and justice. End the blockade and take Cuba off the US State Sponsors of Terrorism List. Respect Cuba's right to self-determination!
Fr Geoffrey Bottoms (United Kingdom)
Lauren Collins (United Kingdom)
The presence of Cuba on the SSOT list is costing lives and preventing Cuba from effectively trading with other nations. There is no evidence to support their presence on this list and in the names of justice and humanity, Cuba should be removed from the list.

I have visited Cuba three times now. First, when Castro was still fighting in the hills when I was on a ship loading sugar. The second & third times were as tourists (with my late wife) a few years ago. Cuba is a very peaceful country and deserves to have the ability to thrive in the world. The USA actions against Cuba are a stain on the USA reputation, and counter productive. Please ask you Government to redress this shameful policy.

Cuba has proved herself an ally and friend of the oppressed and exploited for the past 60 years. By contrast, the USA has been a sponsor of much of the world's oppression and exploitation. The time is long past that the USA should stop telling Cuba, "You should be more like us" and for the USA to try to be a little more like Cuba.

The USA must stop being a bully!! Respect for Cuba and the Cuban people is the only way forward!
Granville David Credland (United Kingdom)
In the UK, a country with similar political and social values to the US, we see the blocade of Cuba as an ideological one. An Imperial technique to influence the politics of another nation. Something that the US would have something to say about if another country, say China, did the same thing to it. I urge the US to set an example in a time where International Law is being ignored by so many countries around the world and end the embargo against the Republic of Cuba.

There is no basis whatsoever for the US government to place Cuba on this list. It is NOT a terrorist country. Cuba is well known for its internationalism and as a host of peace talks.

Nevertheless Cuba is suffering from the world economic crisis, the aftermath of the COVID pandemic, and relentless damage to infrastructure by hurricanes and floods as a consequence of global warming, Cuba all the years was helping with it doctors in all the world to overwelm powerty and illness. As the leader of the "Mothers against war Berlin-Brandenburg" I demand from you at least to stop the ongoing 61-year blockade about Cuba ! Shame you for your doing all the years long to make sanctions against Cuba! This is not democracy,what you are doing, but hegemony ! Brigitte Queck

As a UK resident who has visited Cuba twice, I find it impossible that Democratic, principled Biden should continue to try to justify this cruel injustice. It is unjustifiable. Jane Hartley I am so hopeful that you can change this.
Ann James (United Kingdom)
Dear Ambassador Hartley, I am a United States citizen, also a resident and citizen of the UK. I am a friend of Cuba, have be there several times, and made many friends there. I am very aware, through personal contact, of the enormous difficulties the ordinary people of Cuba have in simply surviving, not to mention to have any kind of fulfillment in life. The barriers to their wellbeing are needless and avoidable. Above all, they are cruel. Please will you help by doing whatever you can to see Cuba removed from the SSOT list. Thank you very much, Kate Whelan

The blockade of Cuba by the United States of America was condemned again on 2nd November 2023 when 187 countries voted for the reolution submitted to the General Assembly of the United Nations. Country after country - some speaking on behalf of large groups within the UN challenged the illegal and inhmane action resulting from the designation by President Trump of Cuba as a State Sponsor of Terrorism. It is time that President Biden listened to world opinion and ended this gross injustice inflicted on the Cuban people.
Dr Bernard Regan (United Kingdom)
When you consider the regimes, and their human rights records, that the US continues to maintain positive relationships with, the persecution of Cuba, just for having the audacity to want to follow its own path, makes no sense whatsoever.
Steve Sugden (United Kingdom)
It is entirely unfair and unrealistic to suggest Cuba is sponsor of terrorism. It is one of the most advanced societies in the southern hemisphere whose record of medical aid to other countries in crisis is second to none. Cuba is also an ecological role model in sustainability of global importance. I therefore request that the United States normalises relations with Cuba and sincerely hope you would help broker such a positive development in the region. Kind regards.

It's outrageous that Cuba is on a list of 'sates sponsors of terrorism', list, unilaterally and arbitrarily drawn by the United States government, justified on fabricated arguments. We dream of the day when Cuba, after the US unconditionally lifts the illegal blockade, is no longer an issue in US lamentable domestic politics.
Francisco Dominguez (United Kingdom)
My family and I have visited Cuba, the people there are so friendly. Only the USA and Israel voted at the UN to maintain the embargo. I find that utterly disgraceful.
Mark Campey (United Kingdom)
Cuba is a socialist country which has suffered terribly from awful sanctions from many countries. Sanctions should stop immediately, and Cuba should be regarded as a socialist country with every right to have productive relationships with other countries. ( I have been to Cuba, and listened to an incredible 4 hour speech by Fidel Castro , which was magnificent!)

You are persecuting Cuba while protecting Israel even as it flouts international law. You know perfectly well that collective punishment is illegal even as Israel cuts off electricity, food, water and medicine to Gazans. The settlements Israel is building on Palestinian land are also illegal but you do nothing about it. Israel has just attacked an ambulance convoy while Blinken cries crocodile tears about civilian deaths. Your hypocrisy and double standards are shameful.

Dear Ambassador, U.S. sanctions are in force in very many countries, stunting the lives of billions of people. This is not the way forward for the world.

It is a travesty for Cuba to be included in the U.S. government's list of State Sponsors of Terrorism.

As a white Englishman I can say, the one country I can visit and have my wife and children walk about safely at any time day or night is Cuba. Only people with no real experience of the country can possibly say it should be on the SSOT. American politicians in need of the Cuban votes from the families who fled the revolution 70 years ago will lie and cheat to get those votes regardless of the damage done to innocent people.

It is now time to remove all restrictions on Cuba, a nation that looks after its people, providing an excellent education and a health system. With continued restrictions, I believe this peaceful country will tire of being victimised, which could add to resentment and effect its peaceful people. How much longer do the people of Cuba have to suffer being called terrorists? End these sanctions NOW. There is enough anger in this world, lets support Cuba in making sure the Cuban people remain peaceful.

We firmly believe that this designation on the United States State Sponsors of Terrorism (SSOT) list is unwarranted and outdated, and it has a detrimental impact on the lives of countless Cubans, including our own families. The distressing reality of food shortages, prolonged queues, and a critical lack of medicines has plunged the nation into the worst economic and humanitarian crisis it has faced in recent history. We urge you, Jane Hartley to reevaluate this designation. It is our sincere hope that by removing Cuba from the SSOT list, we can contribute to a brighter and more prosperous future for the Cuban people. We call upon the US government to take necessary actions to ease the burden on the Cuban population and facilitate their access to essential resources.
Cecilia Corzo (United Kingdom)

Come on. Cuba has suffered MORE than ENOUGH for all these years. Lift the sanctions. They are a shining example of what good healthcare, good education, for free can be.

I have just returned from an education visit to Cuba. This country is peace loving and has humanitarian values stronger than any country I have visited and including my own, the UK. This is evidenced on their support for other countries in need of their expertise e.g.sending top virologist to Italy in Covid crisis. Keeping Cuba on the SSOT list is not only an injustice but deeply insulting given Cubans humanitarian missions around the world. The US is not benefitting from continuing this spiteful blockade as it diminishes the US who likes to talk up values such as liberty and freedom but does not allow the small sovereign island of Cuba these rights. Shame on US and shame on Biden.

Cuba is not a sponsor of terror and it does not in any way endanger the USA.. It aids other countries.

This status that the USA gives Cuba, that of state sponsors of terrorism bears no credence in this day and age. It amounts to the collective punishment of ordinary and innocent Cuban citizens, some of whom I have met in Cuba and they are a lovely people. If anyone is the terrorist here it is the USA in perpetrating unnecessary harm towards the Cuban people. You create your own enemies with these types of oppressions, you idiots. It is your country that is dangerous, but you can’t just see it. The USA will end up destroying the world with your paranoid foreign policies.

The effects of the blockade were already suffered widely but the inclusion of Cuba on the State Sponsors of Terrorism list, not for being terrorists or engaging in terrorist activities but for not aligning with the USA's preferred terror organisations, have etched that suffering deeply.

Dear Ambassador Jane Hartley I would like to also take this opportunity to urge President Biden and the American Government to lift these unjust sanctions that your Government has placed apon the cuban people . The American Government has political disagreements with the Cuban Government which we should work to resolve however imposing these cruel economic sanctions on the Cuban people does not make humanitarian sense . I have personally visited Cuba a number of times and was immensely impressed by their infrastructure re their health service and education system and how they continue to survive and support each other despite these cruel restrictions . However my key observation was that the ordinary people work together to help each other on an ongoing basis much as do ordinary people in the USA and throughout the world . We know that President Biden has made a great contribution to stimulating the American economy .Surely it is now time to also do this with your Cuban neighbour's ? Iain Reekie Scotland ( UK)

This blockade is completely unjustified. In the year of Cuba's presidency of the G77, and given how much Cuba has done to help many of the poorest in less developed countries, surely it is now time to take Cuba off the list.

I am visiting Cuba in January despite the ban. I will be travelling to enjoy Cuba and lend support to Cuba in its struggle. I had planned to visit the US later in the year but that may not be possible with the ban/Visa restrictions. It is a shame that Cuba remains on the SSOT list given all the good it has done in the world.

It is astonishing and disgraceful that Cuba, a force for peace globally, should be on the State Sponsors of Terrorism list.

Cuba does not support or condone terrorism.

Dear Ambassador Hartley, could you see your way to leaving Guantanamo as well. Thanks. Much appreciated.

It is unjust and immoral to keep Cuba on this list. Cuba has suffered enough, please work towards its removal as soon possible.

Do the decent thing and end this US blockade. It cripples Cuba and the people of Cuba do not deserve this
Dorothy Kellegher (United Kingdom)
Having visited Cuba recently I saw first hand the impact of the US government position. Your government appeats and isnwidely understood to be attempting to starve a population into a regime change that you find suitable. This grotesque policy is causing real suffering. I implore you to lobby for Cuba to be removed from.the SSOT list. You know it is unjust and you know that this is the right move.

Cuba has never supported terrorism, it sends doctors to the global south, unlike the US that sends weapons.
Phil Brand (United Kingdom)
This is of the utmost importance to the Cuban people for humanitarian reasons. They have so much to offer but are blocked from making any progress.
