Venezuelans to Step up
Struggle for The Five
General Coordinator of
the Venezuela-Cuba
Solidarity Movement,
Carolina Contreras, said
on Sunday that this year
the group will intensify
the struggle for the
release of the five
Cuban anti-terrorist
fighters held in US
prisons.
We will work to support
the media struggle and
highlight values
including the bravery,
solidarity, gallantry
and patriotism of these
men who remain in prison
for defending their
country from terrorist
acts, said Contreras.
She added that "from
jail, these five Cubans
fill those apparently
free with energy," so we
will state their case in
dailies, radio stations
and TV channels, as well
as in main street
posters.
She said they will also
denounce the case of
international criminal
Luis Posada Carriles,
who was release by the
US despite being the
perpetrator of the
blowing up of a Cuban
plane, killing all 73
people on board, and of
other horrific crimes.
We will work the case of
The Five trough that of
Posada's because in this
way people can better
understand the reasons
these brave men had to
infiltrate Miami-based
terrorist groups, she
explained.
She added that it is
easier for Venezuelans
to understand this
situation of the attacks
against Cuba when we
speak about this
criminal "because we
were also affected by
his actions, and the
blowing up of the plane
was planned in this
country."
If men like The Five
(Gerardo Hernandez,
Fernando Gonzalez,
Antonio Guerrero, Ramon
Labanino and Rene
Gonzalez) had existed in
1976, the criminals had
been unable to blow up
the Cuban plane," she
noted. |
