The European Union's top diplomat Josep Borrell said on Monday that Cubans have the right to protest and called on the Cuban government to listen to their grievances about COVID-19 and medical and food shortages.
"It's been a protest to show discontent on a scale we haven't seen since 1994," Borrell told a news conference following a meeting of EU foreign ministers.
"I want to express the right of the Cuban people to voice their opinions peacefully, and I want to ask the government to listen to these protests of discontent."
