Panamanian Organizations Step up Actions against US Blockade
Students of the main school of Agua Dulce district, in Cocle province, reflected on the cause of Cuba against the US blockade during a local cultural festival, according to reports by organizers.

Attorney Isabel Gonzalez, who chairs the Panamanian Coordinating Committee of Solidarity with Cuba in the province, described as a resounding success activities carried out by high school students of the Rodolfo Chiari College.

Cuban maps, books and posters were shown during the international festival, and there was also a presentation of Cuban cuisine dishes, including eastern congri, cassava and pork meat, Gonzalez told Prensa Latina.

The event, held on Saturday 20 on occasion of the feast to mark the 159th anniversary of Agua Dulce district, attracted numerous residents of Cocle, who were able to know first hand about the life and work of the Cuban people.

Also over the weekend, several radio stations and a TV channel devoted their programs to debates about the US policy against Cuba, including the economic, financial, commercial blockade imposed on the Island for 48 years.
