On behalf of Mesa de Unidad Cubana, on the suspension of the 2017 Political Dialogue and Cooperation Agreement between the EU and its Member States and the Republic of Cuba 

The petitioner calls for the ‘EU-Cuba Agreement’ to be suspended because it is flawed in its origin owing to the failure of the Cuban Government to comply with it, as evidenced by the systematic violation of human and labour rights prior to this 2017 Agreement owing to Law 118-2014 which preceded it. The latter provides a basis for the violation of fundamental rights and affects good governance and the decent wages for Cuban workers in a European business.
