Review of Cuba today at 2.30 pm!

For the first time today Cuba will be reviewed by the Working Group on the Universal Periodic Review. It is already a historic review: there are more than 100 hundred States registered to take the floor (when the average is between 40 and 50) and there have been over 300 hundred reports submitted by stakeholders, that is more than the total of reports submitted on Sessions 1 or 2 and twice as much as Session 3! The summary prepared by the OHCHR of all these reports has been criticized by Cuba itself for giving to much space to international NGOs.
