Cuba condemns U.S. radioelectronic aggression [View all]

GENEVA, January 23.—Cuba has lodged a complaint before the World Radiocommunication Conference against increased U.S. radio and television aggression on the part of the United States.

Wilfredo López, regulations and standards director of the Cuban Ministry of Informatics and Communications, condemned Washington’s open violation of international law, and the provisions of the constitution, agreements and rules of radiocommunications.

Speaking at the first plenary session of the conference, López said that the U.S. continues broadcasting televised material into Cuba from a flying aircraft, property of the U.S. government. Additionally, these transmissions seriously interfere with national radio broadcasting, he noted.

The 2007 Radiocommunication Conference established that any radio broadcasting from aircraft transmitting exclusively to the territory of another country without its consent cannot be considered to be acting within radiocommunications regulations.
