“It is time to settle the historic debt owed to the State of Palestine and restore the inalienable rights of its people, which have been violated by Israel during halfa century of occupation, repression, collective punishment, destruction and confiscation of Palestinian land and property, forced displacement and settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories. We are compelled to recall what our Commander-in-Chief Fidel Castro Ruz, Leader of the Cuban Revolution, said on 12 October 1979 here at the United Nations: "Pushed off their land, expelled from their own country, scattered throughout the world, persecuted and murdered, the heroic Palestinians are a vivid example of sacrifice and patriotism, living symbols of the most terrible crime of our era." (A/34/PV3], para.”

“Mrs. Rodriguez Camejo (Cuba) (spoke in Spanish): First of all, Sir, allow me to congratulate you for your leadership of the Security Council during the month of July. We express our appreciation for the holding of this open debate. We support the statement made by the delegation of Nicaragua on behalf of Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian people and the statement to be made by the representative of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela on behalf of the Movement of Non-Aligned Countries. Cuba expresses its deep concern about the situation in the Middle East, which is plagued by violence, interference in its internal affairs, foreign aggression and long-term conflicts, such as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict - the core of the Arab-Israeli conflict.”

“The undercover and illegal use by individuals, organizations and States of the information systems of other nations in order to attack third countries has the potential to trigger serious conflicts. The only way to prevent and address these threats is through joint cooperation among all States to ensure cybersecurity and to protect critical infrastructure by supporting national efforts aimed at strengthening human capacity, creating more learning and employment opportunities, and improving public services and the quality of life of the population. We must achieve a legally binding international instrument, within the United Nations system, that regulates the use of information and communications technology and ensures that it is only used in accordance with international law and in particular with the Charter of the United Nations.”

“In the light of the militarization of cyberspace and the proliferation of cybercrime and cyberterrorism, it is increasingly urgent for States to ensure that information and communication technology, the Internet, television, radio and other parts of their critical infrastructure are not used by terrorist groups. As a result of growing interconnectivity, critical information infrastructure is now exposed to an increasing and more varied number of threats and weaknesses, which pose new security challenges. The use by State and non-State actors of new information and communication technologies for purposes incompatible with international peace and security is a serious problem, which requires efforts by all States.”

“The Cuban Government has never allowed, nor will it ever allow, the use of its national territory to carry out, plan, support, conceal or finance acts of terrorism targeting any other State, without exception. Our country supports the adoption of a general convention on terrorism and favours the convening of an international conference, under the auspices of the United Nations, that would allow us to reach a multilaterally agreed response to terrorism. We reject and condemn the double standards and selectivity in the treatment of this issue. Combatting terrorism cannot be used as a pretext for interference, interventionism, aggression or violations of international and human rights law. We call for an end to the financing, equipping, training of, supplying of arms and support of any kind to terrorist groups in all their forms.”

“Mrs. Rodriguez Camejo (Cuba) (spoke in Spanish): Cuba aligns itself with the statement to be delivered by the representative of Venezuela on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement. Our country reiterates its unwavering willingness to combat terrorism and expresses its categorical rejection and condemnation of all terrorist acts, methods and practices in all their forms and manifestations, irrespective of motivations, including State-sponsored terrorism. Cuba, in compliance with the 18 international conventions pertaining to terrorism to which it is a State party, has carried out relevant legal measures, such as law 93 on acts of terrorism. The Cuban people bear the scars of terrorist acts organized, financed and executed from abroad which have resulted in a toll of 3,478 dead and 2,099 disabled.”
