“Cuba has a firm and clear historical position against mercenarism and plays an active role in the United Nations in repudiation of this practice,” the ministry added, according to an unofficial translation.
“Cuba is not part of the war in Ukraine. It is acting and will act vigorously against whoever, from the national territory, participates in any form of human trafficking for the purposes of recruitment of mercenarism so that Cuban citizens use weapons against any country.”
The Russian government has not commented on the allegations.
Consistent and principled position, makes sense to me. Also seems impartial, they’d probably issue the same statements if they found mercs fighting for Ukraine. In fact, their statement is entirely impartial in its language.
