Nicaraguan President
Salutes Moncada Deed
Nicaraguan President
Daniel Ortega sent a
message of salutation to
his Cuban counterpart,
Raul Castro, and to
revolutionary leader
Fidel Castro, on the
55th anniversary of the
attack on the Moncada
barracks and the Carlos
Manuel de Cespedes
garrison.
Our salutation to you,
and to Fidel, to
commemorate that heroic
deed in which Cuban
revolutionaries showed
the world their example
of rebelliousness
against injustice and
oppression, said Ortega
in his message.
Fifty-five years after
that heroic deed, Ortega
noted, Cuba continues to
wage new battles for
justice, for peace, for
socialism, for a world
truly full of humanity,
which may guarantee the
wellbeing and prosperity
of the peoples of the
world.
The Nicaraguan president
expressed gratitude for
"the unconditional
solidarity that the
people, the Government
and the Communist Party
of Cuba have given and
give our people; the
same way they do
anywhere on the planet."
Ortega added that we
Nicaraguans "are beside
the people of Cuba and
its government, also
fighting indefatigably
to achieve that the five
Cuban antiterrorist
patriots, who are
unjustly held in the
empire's dungeons,
return to their Homeland
again."
He also demanded an end
to aggressions and the
blockade imposed by US
governments. |
