In greeting the Cuban people and its Government, the Dominican Popular Movement (MPD) stated that the history of Latin America and the Caribbean took a radical turn with the triumph of the Cuban Revolution on January 1, 1959.

“The spirit of José Martí, Antonio Maceo, Máximo Gómez and other great men, such as Simón Bolívar, was synthesized in the great and heroic Commander in Chief, Fidel Castro,” it noted.

He stressed that the Revolution constitutes the greatest example of political and humanitarian solidarity for the peoples in struggle of the world and pointed out that the people of the largest of the Antilles do not give in, despite the blockade of the United States and the limitations that it causes.

Likewise, the Rebel Movement, led by Juan Hubiere, pointed out that “Today, on the 66th anniversary of the luminous Cuban Revolution, our congratulations go to the brave people who with that process lit the light of inclusive liberation for the peoples of Latin America.”

Likewise, the Caamañista Movement expressed in a statement that “66 years ago in Cuba, the great cycle of the new continental independence still unfinished opened its doors to the Latin-Caribbean Great Homeland, in a gesture of frank heresy and triumphant insubordination, which the rebellious and brutal North does not forgive.”

“From such reality derive successive feats after the victory at Playa Girón (April 19, 1965), which marks the reaffirmation of an exemplary and unrenounceable anti-imperialism and a bold change of direction towards a process of socialist orientation that rightly and with a sense of justice scorned the perverse capitalist route.”

He considered that “imperialist cruelty against Cuba has reached such extreme levels that it is imperative to pay with much more solidarity this beautiful debt from the BRICS, from the Non-Aligned Countries, from the sovereign states, from ALBA and its growth prospects, from the transformative social and political movements”.

For the Caamañista Movement, “it is as urgent to do so as it is urgent to mobilize to defeat the recolonizing arrogance, now with the surname “Trump” and its intentions to appropriate the natural resources of Venezuela, annex Mexico and Canada, retake the Panama Canal by force, “and impose its claws in the Caribbean and throughout the continent.”
