English/ Español: Rubio Statement on Vilsack Confirmation Vote
Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio released a statement ahead of the Senate’s vote on the confirmation of Thomas Vilsack to be Secretary of Agriculture.
“Supporting a nominee directly involved in the Obama Administration’s policy of concessions to Havana’s tyrants would be an unconscionable mistake,” Rubio said. “Secretary Vilsack’s erroneous belief that developing trade and business relationships with Cuba’s despotic regime would magically lead to the island’s liberalization and democratization is misguided and dangerous to our national security interests. Let me be clear: the Cuban regime has violated the basic human rights of the Cuban people for decades. There is no crop, nor trade agreement, between Cuba’s rulers and the U.S. that would stop the regime’s egregious abuses from continuing. Our next Secretary of Agriculture should uphold American values rather than appeasing international foes.”
Rubio is the Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.
RUBIO SOBRE LA CONFIRMACIÓN DE VILSACK
Washington, DC – El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio emitió el siguiente comunicado antes de la votación en el pleno del senado de EE.UU. para confirmar a Thomas Vilsack como Secretario de Agricultura.
“El apoyar a un nominado quien estuvo directamente involucrado en la política de concesiones por parte de la administración Obama a los tiranos en La Habana sería un error inconcebible”, Rubio dijo. “La creencia errónea del secretario Vilsack que el desarrollo de relaciones comerciales con el régimen de Cuba conduciría mágicamente a la liberalización y democratización de la isla es equivocada y peligrosa para nuestros intereses de seguridad nacional. Déjenme ser claro: por décadas, el régimen cubano ha violado los DD.HH. del pueblo cubano. No hay ningun acuerdo comercial entre Cuba y EE.UU. que vaya a parar los atroces abusos del regimen. Nuestro próximo Secretario de Agricultura debería defender los valores estadounidenses en lugar de apaciguar a los enemigos internacionales”.
Rubio es el Miembro de Más Alto Rango del Subcomité sobre Hemisferio Occidental, Crimen Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
