> “While rich countries export soldiers and drop bombs on poor communities, Cuba, by sending doctors all over the world, exports life, love and health.”
>   
> Luis Ignacio “Lula” Da Silva, Former President of Brazil
> Dear C. G.,
> 
> We agree with Brazilian leader Lula. While the U.S. government is engaged in endless wars and threatens new ones, we clearly see which countries finance death and which fund life. As the pandemic spreads across the globe, the response to COVID-19 by Cuba’s Henry Reeve Brigades exemplifies internationalism and humanitarianism versus unilateralism and militarism. Now, more than ever, it is important to recognize and celebrate Cuban doctors by awarding them the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize.
