Bush Sanctions Will Crash against Cuban Will: FM

Havana, Oct 21 (Prensa Latina) Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Perez
Roque affirmed Sunday the new anti-Cuba sanctions announced by US
President George W. Bush will once again come up against the people's
determination to be free.

Shortly after having cast his vote in the municipal elections, Perez
Roque told Prensa Latina that on Wednesday, President Bush will
announce new actions to tighten the nearly 50-decade-old economic
blockade against the Island.

But, he stressed, "plans and evil machinations to make the Cuban people
surrender by hunger and diseases will plunge."

The massive participation of the people in these elections, and the way
the process has developed, even amid national and international
difficulties, are a sign of the level of support for the Revolution,
the minister stated.

Similarly, he went on, it is an indicator of the people's commitment to
rectify problems, and defend the work it has built.

On October 30 at the UN, it will be demonstrated whether the
international community supports the ever-tightened US blockade or our
right to be a free country, Perez Roque asserted.
