Uruguay Rejects Blockade Against Cuba, Attempts To Sanction Venezuela
MONTEVIDEO, April 1 (BERNAMA-NNN-Prensa Latina) -- Uruguayan President Jose Mujica has rejected the US economic blockade against Cuba and warned about the attempts to impose sanctions on Venezuela.
In a statement released by the Ministry of Communication of the Presidency, Mujica said: "When the whole world asks the US to eliminate the economic blockade against Cuba, some voices arise from that government threatening Venezuela with sanctions."
The first thing that Venezuela and throughout Latin America need is to be respected, said Mujica.
Peace, tolerance, respect and negotiation are values that must be remembered and cultivated for Venezuela to fit into the peoples of the South, he said.
The second, he said, is to love all Venezuelans, as part of us.
He added that its contradictions are also ours and its resolution should not be violent, and less, incited from outside.
