ON Sunday November 14 Cuba Solidarity Campaign groups will hold a rally outside the Cuban embassy in London to protest against US intervention.
The protest will condemn the escalation of US government aggression against Cuba and highlight the actions of foreign governments, groups and individuals who are attempting to destabilise the country by supporting, financing and co-ordinating protests around the world and in Cuba itself between November 14-15.
Pro-blockade US politicians and right-wing Cuban-American groups based in Florida are pushing for increased sanctions and calling for further US action, including intervention.
