00:02When Castro sent thousands of gay people, Christians, Afro-Cubans, and others to concentration
00:10camps, it was the regime who stripped them of their property and profited from their
00:16forced labor.
00:18Ever since Havana would have you believe, everything in Cuba has just disappeared.
00:25Well, we know, we know where it went, and today we are here to share it to the world.
00:36You are under the 71 rule of the rules and procedures of this generalization.
00:45Respectfully, I request that you fulfill this rule and run immediately.
00:53I hope everyone, Mr. President, is listening to the delegation right now.
00:59Imagine what happens when someone asks questions.
01:03Imagine what happens when someone asks these questions in Havana, not in a room full of ambassadors
01:09and cameras.
01:10Imagine what happens to those people if this is the intimidation and disruption that we
01:15see.
01:15Yes.
01:15I hear that a request for a point of order has been made.
01:20In the beginning of this session, I requested that…
01:28Yes.
01:29I hear…
01:31This is violation of the procedural rule for this General Osama.
01:37I request…
01:38Your X would say, I know you don't like to hear this.
01:41This is America, my friend.
01:42Mr. President…
01:43This is the United Nations.
01:44This isn't your communist dictatorship.
01:47You cannot silence me.
01:49Mr. Minister…
01:49Or you cannot silence my colleagues.
01:51And at the beginning of this session, I very respectfully requested that the current speaker,
01:59whoever it be, be allowed to conclude before I give the floor to any delegation requesting
02:06for point of order.
02:09I ask everybody to respectfully...
02:12Mr. President, this individual needs to back away from this podium.
02:16He's not going to intimidate me in the United States of America like he tries to intimidate...
02:21Mr. President, you're going to listen to me, and I'll ask everybody to go back to their delegation.
02:26Mr. President, and I'm the representative of the United States of America.
02:28Back up.
02:29Mr. President, you are a liar, Mr. President.
02:30Mr. President, back away.
02:33This isn't Havana.
02:34I'm suspending the meeting.
02:36Mr. President, you're not going to intimidate me.
02:36Mr. President, I'm suspending this meeting.
02:38Mr. President, do you understand who you're dealing with?
02:39This is America.
02:41Back up.
02:42The rule is clear.
02:43This is the substance of the speech.
02:45There are no procedural...
02:46Mr. President, you can bring...
02:47Mr. President, the meeting is suspended.
02:49Mr. President, please sit down.
02:50Sit down.
02:53When I resume, when I resume the meeting, I listen to everybody.
02:58People running Cuba never seem to lack anything, do they?
03:02And remember...
03:04Mr. President, I ask you to call the order of the permanent representative of the United States
03:10that not only lies in a serious and prepotent manner,
03:15mistake of the dignity of this nueve, does not give the dignity of the people and the government of Cuba.
03:51I request Mr. Speaker to please raise
03:56the issues of of procedure please to my fellow ambassadors do not hand Havana
04:10another propaganda victory don't lend your votes to the abuse of the Cuban
04:17people and even now the regime has resorted to a complete and utter lie
04:23that the United States is threatening countries with reprisals over their vote
04:29they are threatening countries with reprisals over this vote the bottom line
04:35is they're just scared and they're scared of the truth every year this
04:41corrupt regime uses this vote and this body to then go back and lie to the
04:46Cuban people that the world is with them you are participating in that you are
04:50complicit colleagues history is watching do not stand with this regime vote no on
04:57this resolution and stand with the Cuban people I thank you mr. president I thank
