The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC) repudiates the latest expression of the escalating aggression by the US against Cuba, evident in the staged judicial accusation against Raul Castro, former President of the Republic of Cuba, Army General and one of the most prominent leaders of the Cuban Revolution.
The World Peace Council expresses its indignation and rejects vehemently the latest threats and attacks of the US administration against the Cuban Revolution and its leader Raul Castro. The dirty campaign of the USA against Cuba does not stop at the asphyxiation and strangling of the Cuban people with the complete energy blockade and the other sanctions. It has taken new levels of immoral and unacceptable fabrication of supposed legal accusations against the sovereign right of every country to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

A campanha suja dos EUA contra Cuba não se limita à asfixia e ao estrangulamento do povo cubano por meio do bloqueio energético completo e das demais sanções. Ela alcançou novos níveis de fabricação imoral e inaceitável de supostas acusações legais contra o direito soberano de cada país de defender sua soberania e integridade territorial.
The U.S. Peace Council sharply condemns the Trump administration for repeatedly threatening to militarily invade Cuba, bomb and destroy schools and hospitals — as the U.S. did to Serbia, Iraq, Libya, Iran and many other states that assert their sovereignty and defy U.S. imperialist diktats, and overthrow Cuba’s socialist state — most recently through the Presidential executive order signed on May 1, 2026, and Trump’s open threat to “take over” Cuba.
The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC) repudiates the submission of the Portuguese Government to the aggressive policy of the United States of America, which found a particularly serious new expression in the cession of the Lajes Air Base for the war of aggression waged by the USA and Israel against Iran.

The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC), reaffirming its solidarity with the Cuban people, condemns the repeated threats of military aggression by the US against Cuba.
The unacceptable statements by US President Donald Trump that he will "take control of Cuba" constitute a clear and direct threat of military aggression that can only deserve the strongest repudiation and condemnation from all those who defend peace, sovereignty and the rights of peoples, the principles of the Charter of the United Nations and international law.
The Portuguese Council for Peace and Cooperation (CPPC) strongly condemns Israel's criminal and genocidal aggression against the Palestinian people, with the continuation of attacks on the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, which increase the number of already hundreds of thousands of dead, wounded and displaced Palestinians murdered, including tens of thousands of children.
