It is Imperative to Prevent a Military Aggression against the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela
Declaration of the Revolutionary Government of Cuba
The Revolutionary Government condemns the escalation of actions perpetrated by the government of the United States to justify a military aggression against the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
The accumulation and increase of military troops and material in the Caribbean Sea; the use of force to attack civilian crafts and murder their crews and the unjustified interdiction and detention of a vessel in violation of international regulations, confirm the hostile and irresponsible nature of the ongoing operation.
Added to this is the dissemination of psychological warfare messages by the Government of the United States to try to legitimize these actions before the public opinion under the gross pretext that Venezuela represents a threat to the national security of the United States and the wellbeing of its citizens.
The US Secretary of State and other like-minded senators and Congress members, who are also responsible for the ongoing genocidal escalation in Gaza, are attempting to impose their interests by force in Venezuela, which is both unjustifiable and dangerous.
The true purpose of these actions is to seize the oil and natural resources of Venezuela.
Cuba has repeatedly warned that the deployment of US military forces in the Caribbean in recent weeks is a provocation intended to unleash a military conflict that would compel the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to defend its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
A direct military aggression against Venezuela would have incalculable consequences for peace, stability and security in Our America.
No government can be allowed to resort to threats or the use of force in violation of the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and International Law.
It is imperative to distinguish lies from reality.
Cuba calls for an international mobilization to prevent an aggression and preserve Latin America and the Caribbean as a Zone of Peace, as was proclaimed by its Heads of State and Government.
Havana, September 18th, 2025.
