“In the current stage of the world, when some 200 countries have been recognized as independent states with the right to participate in the United Nations —ridiculous legal fiction—, the only chance to forge a ray of hope is by leading the masses, in a rational and calm way, to the understanding that all the inhabitants of the planet are facing a grave risk.”

"The United Nations can not exist without the presence of the peoples that have been calling for an end to the blockade.  What would be the use of that body, which was founded at a time when an overwhelming majority of countries were not even independent, without our presence?  What rights do we have if we can not even call for an end to the blockade imposed against a small country?  One way or another they have subordinated us to the interests of the United States and NATO, a belligerent military organization that wastes more than one trillion dollars every year in wars and weapons, an amount of money that would be more than enough to satisfy the basic needs of all peoples of the world."

"We need a truly democratic United Nations, not an imperial domain where the overwhelming majority of peoples does not count.  The United Nations, founded before the end of the Second World War, is already exhausted.  Let us not allow them to impose on us the ridiculous role of gathering once again within 12 months so that they could laugh at us.  Let us make our demand be felt.  Let us save the life of our species before it is too late."

“Despite the unabashed monopoly of the mass media and the fascist methods of the United States and their allies to confuse and dupe world opinion, resistance of the peoples grows, and that can be seen in the discussions that are being produced in the United Nations”.

"(...) under the aegis of the Yankee empire, no security guarantee exists for any other country.  In the UN one can repeat time and time again the unanimous rejection of the economic blockade on Cuba, or any other measure such as the right of the Palestinian people to their constitution as a state, but unless such a right, or any other, fits in with the empire’s interests, it has no validity whatsoever".
