French association celebrates Cuba’s Day of National Rebelliousness

Francia, Cuba, solidaridad, celebración, 26 de julio
Paris, Jul 25 (Prensa Latina) The Cuba Cooperation France Association (CubaCoop) on Monday celebrated Cuba's Day of National Rebelliousness and affirmed that July 26, 1953, filled the Cuban people with dignity.

Those great historic events in Cuba also gave hope back to many in the world, CubaCoop President Victor Fernandez said on behalf of the organization, on the occasion of the 69th anniversary of the attacks on the Moncada and Carlos Manuel de Cespedes garrisons, which paved the way to the Cuban Revolution.

Fernandez ratified the political and economic support from the association, founded in 1995, for Cuba and condemned the blockade imposed by the United States for more than six decades.

“What crime has Cuba committed to deserve this criminal blockade and sanctions?” he wondered.

According to the CubaCoop president, Cuba can only be accused of taking millions of Latin Americans out of illiteracy through the “Yo si puedo” (Yes, I Can) teaching method, restoring sight to so many others with Operation Miracle free eye surgery program or sending tens of thousands of doctors to save lives worldwide.

Cuba has also produced its own vaccines to protect its people from Covid-19, therefore, it does not deserve the blockade and we have reasons to demand the end of a policy that is the main obstacle to Cuba’s development, he warned.

In this sense, he insisted on the Cuban people’s exclusive right to choose their own future, without foreign interference.

According to Fernandez, if demanding that the United States lift the economic, commercial and financial blockade is important, demanding that the European Union (EU) stop the double standard about the blockade is equally important.
