VOICED : La ONU condena el embargo de EEUU contra Cuba por 29ª vez

The UN General Assembly condemned the US embargo on Cuba with 184 votes against it, while only the US and Israel voted in favor. In Havana, people over 60 were receiving the Cuban COVID-19 vaccine, Abdala, as they followed the UN vote. The embargo, imposed in 1962 after Cuba's socialist revolution, has cost the island over $147 billion. In 2016, the US abstained from voting against the embargo under Obama, but Trump later reversed this policy, imposing 250 new sanctions.
