Havana, December 17 (RHC)-- Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel denounced Tuesday the aggressive and unilateral behavior of the United States and its total contempt for international law and the sovereign rights of states.

With this strategy, the U.S. government has worsened the existing problems on the planet, the Cuban president told lawmakers attending a meeting of the Economic Affairs Committee of the Cuban parliament.

The head of state criticized the White House's policy of reviving the 19th century Monroe Doctrine, and he warned that the Trump Administration is acting "with the imperialist vision that Latin America is the backyard of the United States."

Díaz-Canel also assured that neoliberalism has failed ideologically, economically, and socially because it leads to inequality and the increase of differences in favor of a few, unleashing popular demonstrations in different nations.

He added that Washington did not achieve most of its aims in the international and regional arena.

In that regard, he mentioned Donald Trump's attempts to overthrow the Bolivarian Revolution in Venezuela, which failed because of the "heroic resistance of the civil-military union" of the South American nation.

Diaz-Canel added that Washington is now resorting to pretexts to justify its defeats and the most recurrent is Cuba's supposed responsibility for what is happenening in Latin America.

But the United States and its lackeys should recognize that the people are tired and are taking to the streets to protest, Díaz-Canel stressed, alluding to the social mobilizations that are shaking several countries in the hemisphere.

"Faced with these gross lies against Cuba, our policy is not to surrender, not to assume colonizing strategies, and to continue the struggle," said the Cuban president.
