Details are sketchy, but something has gone very wrong in Havana:
From Democtratic Spaces
A video published by Z8rty News and Cubanos por El Mundo shows police in Cuba breaking into a premise that is described in this video as Kuwait’s Embassy in Habana. A diplomat (Ahmed Ismail) asks police to stop and indicates this is “Kuwait’s Embassy” but police disregarded his request and forcibly entered the premises.
PNR police’s forcible entrance into Kuwait’s embassy constitute a clear violation of diplomatic immunity as per the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. The same applies to breaking into the residences of diplomats. Specific information about the identity of the woman in the video or the date is unknown.
As per Article 22.3 of the “Vienna Convention of Diplomatic Relations (1961) “The premises of the mission, their furnishings and other property thereon and the means of transport of the mission shall be immune from search, requisition, attachment or execution.
The convention also states: Article 30.1
“The private residence of a diplomatic agent shall enjoy the same inviolability and protection as the premises of the mission.”
