CUBA’S foreign minister has called for an end to the treaty imposed on his country that ceded a portion of Guantanamo Bay to the United States.

Bruno Rodriguez said: “The presence of the naval base violates the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Cuba and international law.”

The Cuban government said Sunday marked 122 years since the imposition of the treaty on Guantanamo, that occupies the eastern end of the island.
