China has underscored its support for Cuba regarding the defense of its sovereignty and legitimate rights, as well as its opposition to the blockade, sanctions and external interference.
Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno RodrÃguez, acting as a special envoy for the Communist Party and the government of Cuba, held separate discussions here with his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, and with Wang Huning, Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference—the country’s top advisory body.
The head of Chinese diplomacy affirmed that, regardless of how the international landscape may evolve, Beijing will maintain its support for Havana in the face of coercive measures and external interference.
Wang Yi noted that, under the strategic guidance of the top leaders of both nations, relations between the two parties and states continue to develop, and their traditional friendship is gaining new momentum.
He further expressed his country’s readiness to work with Cuba to implement the consensuses reached by their respective leaders, consolidate bilateral ties, and build a closer community with a shared future.
Wang Yi expressed a commitment to strengthening communication and coordination on multilateral issues, maintaining mutual support within those forums, and jointly opposing power politics and unilateral actions.
He also advocated for fostering unity and strengthening the Global South, as well as promoting a more just and equitable system of global governance. Separately, Wang Huning, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), reaffirmed support for Cuba in its struggle against United States sanctions and the blockade, and thanked Havana for its continued backing of issues of core interest to Beijing.
He noted that relations between the two countries have reached new milestones under the strategic guidance of their respective top leaders, and highlighted high-level meetings as drivers of bilateral cooperation.
He underscored China’s commitment to maintaining a long-term policy of friendship with Cuba, regardless of any changes in the international landscape.
Furthermore, he expressed his confidence that the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC) will continue to guide its people in the construction of socialism and achieve new successes in that process.
Havana has, on numerous occasions, expressed its gratitude for the support and solidarity shown by the Chinese government—not only through its backing in multilateral forums but also through practical collaboration across various sectors, even as the blockade against the island has intensified.
