Legislator and general secretary of the Communist Youth of Chile, Karol Cariola, praised as a sign of peace the agreement for the restoration of relations between Cuba and the United States.
This is a great very important progress since the political, social and economic viewpoint, the legislator said in exclusive statements to Prensa Latina.
The United States should realize once that it could have subdued Cuba maintaining that obtuse, biased position, she said.
For Cariola, what the U.S. government should do is to respect the peoples' autonomy, establish relations and begin to dismantle the blockade on Cuba.
That brutal blockade existing up to day, which is present and had had repercussions in the quality of life of the Cuban people precisely because for notcan not have economic relations with other countries, he said.
The youth leader stated that the restoration of ties between Washington and Havana is being supported from her country for considering a progress.
We have supported the Cuban people from here and we have no doubt that the strength of the ideology of the revolution and the efforts of many years of resistance despite the blockade, will allow them to succeed in this new stage, she said.
The United States should play a role and we hope that this is the dismantling of the blockade and respect for the fundamental rights of individuals, she stated.
