Asked about China’s comment on the Cuban government’s rejection of recent accusations made by the US against Cuban leader Raul Castro, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Thursday that China consistently and firmly opposes unilateral sanctions that have no basis in international law or authorization of the UN Security Council.

“We stand against abusing judicial means and exerting pressure on Cuba under any pretext by external forces,” Guo said.

The US should stop brandishing sanctions or judicial proceedings at Cuba and stop resorting to the threat of force at every turn, the spokesperson said, adding that China firmly supports Cuba in safeguarding its sovereignty and national dignity and opposing external interference.
