# The South African Communist Party is calling on the South African government, trade unions and civil society to intensify pressure to end the decades-old US blockade against Cuba. The party’s call comes as the 34th debate on the blockade at the United Nations General Assembly takes place in New York this week. The SACP called the blockade as an extreme threat to Cuba’s survival. The party’s Alex Mashilo is urging a strong international rejection of the blockade:
