Havana: Cuba has called for a debate at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) over the long-standing US blockade, arguing that the sanctions have created a severe humanitarian situation and pose an imminent threat to the island nation. The debate, scheduled for Tuesday, will allow Havana to present its concerns over the impact of US.
