The U.S. organization Pastors for Peace, a special ministry of the Interreligious Foundation for Community Organization (IFCO), has launched a ten-day caravan of vehicles, traveling across the U.S., as a prelude to its already traditional "Friendshipment Caravan" to Cuba in July, started in 1992 by the late U.S. Reverend Lucius Walker.

 

Outrage and protests across the United States and around the world forced U.S. President Donald Trump to take measures to try to resolve the issue of family separations on its southern border. Many protests said the policy of taking young children from their parents was in violation of international human rights law.

 

The Director General of the United Nations Organization for Education, Science and Culture (UNESCO), Audrey Azoulay, received on Friday the Cuba´s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla.
