[Lnc-business] For your consideration...(Cuban Prisoner Resolution)

[Whitney Bilyeu]

-----
The Libertarian National Committee wholeheartedly opposes the unjust arrest
and detention of peaceful individuals.  The arrests on February 2, 2017,
and subsequent detention of libertarian activists, Ubaldo Herrera Hernandez
and Manuel Velazquez, in Cuba illustrate the threats to freedom we all face
around the world.

The Libertarian Party calls on the Cuban government to immediately release
details of the above-mentioned arrests and detentions, including the
specific charges being levied against the individuals in question.  In the
absence of such information, we call for the release of these prisoners.

Libertarian activism worldwide must not be deterred by the attempts of
authoritarian leaders, totalitarian governments, and dictatorial regimes to
silence the voice of freedom.  We condemn any acts of official oppression,
and uphold the promotion of limited government and free markets in any
country.  Furthermore, we call on the U.S. Department of State to publicly
denounce violations of the right to free speech, the right to peaceably
assemble, and the right to due process abroad.
