Hundreds of rally in Washington against the Cuban government

Washington: Hundreds of American Cuban, political refugees, and activists marched in the US capital Monday to protest the Cuban government and its harshness in anti-communist demonstrations earlier this month.
Cuba from all over the United States waved the signs of “freedom” and the Cuban and American flag gathered outside the White House to demand President Joe Biden take action against the island regime.
Human rights groups accused the ruler of Cuba using sensors and fear tactics to suppress historic anti-government demonstrations – the biggest protest since the revolution that brought Fidel Castro came to power in 1959.
“We decided to get the attention of Americans,” Carlos said Rodriguez, 29, who flew to Washington from Miami to show his support.
“We need to (the White House) to express the depreciation of the Cuban government,” said Elena Cruz, 32, a broker based in Florida which killed Cuba at the age of 16 years.
On July 11, a number of demonstrations erupted across Cuba triggered by economic disputes, medical shortcomings and food and anger in the regime.
Clashes with the police left one dead, while the next hard action targeted hundreds of others to capture and be charged with disgust, public disorders, vandalism, and negligent behavior in the midst of a pandemic Covid-19.
In the middle of hard action, internet blackouts make it difficult for families to keep in touch.
Rodriguez managed to reach his relatives in Cuba, who sided with the protesters but was afraid to speak publicly.
“We are only peacefully here protesting, like what we have to do in this country,” he said.
“We don’t have it in Cuba.” Some expatriates remember the stories of repression caused by the Communist Party.
The original Miami Kiele Cabrera, 24, spoke in memory of his father and grandmother – both of them were persecuted for opposing the government.
“Everyone here has an intense story like mine, and we still have people on the island who are still oppressed by people exactly the same for years,” he said.
March, which ended at the Cuban Embassy, ​​was planned for the Cuban Revolution Day, a national holiday celebrating Fidel Castro’s first attack on the Government of Batista.
The United States has voiced support for Cuban people, forcing sanctions last week about Cuban Defense Minister.
Biden warns of sanctions will be “only the beginning” steps against the Communist Party.
“When we hold the accountability of the Cuban regime, our support for Cuban people is unshakable,” he said.
