“Never before has such profound brotherhood and such growing love been seen as that which exists between Cuba and Venezuela. We are two sister revolutions in Bolivar and Marti, in Fidel and Chavez,” the head of state wrote on his Telegram account.

Maduro emphasized that this indissoluble union “has allowed us to confront imperial attacks and move forward in the construction of a more just world.”

The head of state sent warm, supportive, and brotherly greetings to Army General Raul Castro Ruz, to fellow President Miguel Diaz-Canel, to the brave militants, and to the undefeated Cuban people.

Referring to the heroic feat of the assault on the Moncada Barracks in the city of Santiago de Cuba, led by the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, along with the rebellious youth of 1953, he stated that “that day, the pro-imperialist dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista began its countdown.”

He emphasized that the bravery and courage of the Centennial Generation, with Jose Marti as its mastermind, was “the seed that gave way to a fierce and indestructible Socialist Revolution, a beacon of dignity for the people.”

The Bolivarian president emphasized that the Moncada feat not only laid the foundation for the liberation of Cuba, but also inspired the unity and struggle of Our America.
