Lift the Blockade and Grant Cuba Immediate Aid
Published by NZ Not for Sale Campaign on Sep 24, 2008
Dear Prime Minister,
As artists and intellectuals we have been pleased to add our names to the international petition organised by our Cuban colleagues, in which they call for the US to lift the economic blockade of their country, so that the huge task of restoring their infrastructure can take place without the additional costs caused by that rather senseless and vindictive embargo.
We would go further, as a national grouping, and call on the NZ Government:
(i) to actively urge the US to lift the blockade,
(ii) to grant Cuba immediate aid,
(iii) and to be willing to support NGO agencies in the usual manner, if any wish to activate an aid programme with Cuba.
