Movement for Social Justice condemns US blockade on Cuba
The MSJ said the ongoing electrical power crisis is affecting the island as major electricity failures have plunged large parts of Cuba into darkness for extended periods. The MSJ said this crisis has severely disrupted the lives of citizens, crippled businesses and forced the closure of schools and essential institutions.
The MSJ attributed the root cause of Cuba's power crisis to the long-standing and inhumane economic, financial and trade blockade imposed unilaterally by the United States. It said the blockade has made it increasingly difficult for Cuba to maintain and upgrade its ageing power infrastructure.
