Fidel Castro Book Values
Principles
Havana - Fidel Castro's
book "La Paz en
Colombia" (Peace in
Colombia ), launched in
Havana Wednesday,
proclaims Cuba and its
leader's attachment to
ethics and principles to
politically solve the
conflict in that nation.
The 265-page volume
containing unpublished
documents and stories of
the author's historic
link with the Colombian
people, reality and
struggle ratifies the
Cuban position to find a
negotiated solution to
the long armed conflict.
"The most important
thing is it reflects
Cuba "s battle for
Colombian peace," Jose
Arbesu, chief of the
Americas department at
the island's Communist
Party Central Committee
and actor in important
incidents related in the
book, said in the
launching ceremony.
Cuba has never sent
weapons or financed
guerrilla fighters and
their performance was
only based on
humanitarian criterion,
the publication stated.
Other fundamental
elements were stressed
by Culture Minister Abel
Prieto, who referred to
what he called US
imperialism's diabolic
pact that marked
Colombia in its desire
of using it in its plans
for continental
domination.
Fidel Castro's testimony
refers to the Cuban
support against war and
for peace, against death
and for life and makes a
respectful analysis to
recently deceased Manuel
Marulanda, chief of the
Revolutionary Armed
Forces of Colombia,
Prieto said.
Cuban political leaders,
national and foreign
journalists, students,
diplomats and workers
from several
organizations attended
the activity. |
