BUT little CUBA calls IT A BLOCKADE!!
Today is February 3rd of 2024 and it was on February 3rd of 1962 that President John F. Kennedy signed and legalized the U. S. EMBARGO/BLOCKADE against Cuba. It became legal shortly after the infamous U. S. military {Bay of Pigs} attack against Cuba in April of 1961 failed to overthrow Revolutionary Cuba. Legalizing the EMBARGO/BLOCKADE became firm on February 3rd of 1962 when President Kennedy signed Proclamation 3447 and it remains legal on February 3rd of 2024, so today is its 62nd Anniversary.
Made legal by Proclamation 3447 on February 3rd in 1962, the U. S. EMBARGO/BLOCKADE OF CUBA today is celebrating its 62nd ANNIVERSARY. Declassified U. S. documents revealed that the purpose of Proclamation 3447 was to starve, deprive, and make miserable the Cubans in Cuba to encourage them to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government, but because that has not occurred it remains in effect 62 YEARS later. That, incredibly, is true although the image above shames the United States internationally, as does the outraged yearly vote of the nations around the world at the United Nations in New York.
As of last month -- January in 2024 -- Cuba is celebrating the 64TH ANNIVERSARY of the Cuban Revolution's astouinding victory over the U.S./Mafia-backed BATISTA DICTATORSHIP, which occurred in January of 1959.
And today -- February 3rd of 2024 -- Cuba is marking the 62nd ANNIVERSARY of the day on February 3r4 of 1962 when the United States legalized Proclamation 3447, which legalized the Embargo/Blockade on Cuba...which incredibly remains in effect till this day on February 3rd of 2024 with absolutely no end on the horizon.
