U.N. votes against U.S. embargo on Cuba for 16th year

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The U.N. General Assembly voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to urge the United States to lift its four-decade-old embargo against Cuba in a resolution adopted for the 16th consecutive year.

The measure is nonbinding and such moves in the past have had no impact on U.S. policy.

Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque denounced the "arrogance and political blindness" of Washington in ignoring 15 similar resolutions passed since 1992.


FU Felipe, and btw UN General Assembly, FU too.
