Havana, March 28 (acn) The president of the Cuban Journalists Union (UPEC), Tubal Paez, denounced on Thursday in Caracas, Venezuela, the permanent media aggression carried out from the United States against the island.

Paez, who heads the Cuban delegation to a Latin American conference on media terrorism that began on Thursday in the Venezuelan capital, recalled that some 2.900 hours of radio and television programming are broadcast every week from the United States to the island with all kinds of manipulated information.

The event on media terrorism, inaugurated by the Venezuelan Information and Communications Minister Andres Izarra, is being attended by professionals from 14 countries.

According to the Bolivarian News Agency, Izarra pointed out that information transnationals such as CNN, Fox, BBC and other news agencies serve as a platform to spread the ideas of the imperial mechanism.

He explained that these big transnationals and others that defend the imperial interests to the detriment of the independence, self-determination and integration of peoples, conspire against the sovereignty of nations.

Venezuela, Bolivia, Nicaragua and Ecuador, with their ongoing social projects, have also become permanent targets of media terrorism, which will be condemned during this event that concludes next Sunday.
