   Every country in the UN has voted to lift the unjustified embargo against Cuba. AGAIN. 🇨🇺

   Everyone except for Moldova (abstained) and Israel and the US. (voted against)

   This happens every year, pretty much in the same way. And the embargo continues. 🙄

   Just in case you were still wondering who the 'bad guys' really are.

     Another hit from the same album is the UN vote to make food a right.

     In which (you guessed it) only the US and Israel vote against.

     Not that I believe for one second that the UN voting in favour would solve world hunger, but it takes a special kind of entitled evil to be out there proudly saying "Food? Nah, not a basic human right. Screw your hungry people."
