Last week, Miguel Diaz-Canel, first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and president of the country, called today for the total elimination of nuclear weapons as the only guarantee for peace.
In his address to the 10th session, the head of state warned that the frenzied arms race currently underway around the world threatens to destroy the human species.
Diaz-Canel stressed the need to end the nuclear arsenals of all nations, including Israel, which carried out a series of military attacks against Iran last Friday, beginning a conflict that has already lasted five days.
Quoting the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, the president said:
When the lives of one's species, of one's people, and of those closest to them are at such risk, no one can afford to be indifferent.
According to international news agencies, the attacks on each side have killed at least 224 people in Iran and 24 in Israel last week.
