Cubans and Chinese citizens pay tribute to Jose Marti in Shanghai

Shanghai, China, Jan 24 (Prensa Latina) Cubans, Chinese citizens, and diplomats paid tribute to Cuban National Hero Jose Marti commemorating his 172nd birthday.

The participants laid a wreath at the Apostle’s bust, by sculptor Yan You Ren, located at Jing’an Park in this city.

Cuban Consul General in this city, Mileidy Aguirre, said this activity officially began the celebrations in the Consulate jurisdiction in Shanghai of several events to commemorate the 65th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Cuba, to be held on September 28.

Aguirre also condemned Cuba’s inclusion again in Washington’s State Sponsors of Terrorism (SSOT) list, implemented by US President Donald Trump just a few hours after taking office.

The diplomat highlighted the importance of China’s relationship with Cuba and Beijing’s role in shaping a fairer and more inclusive international system.

Cuban Ambassador to China, Alberto Blanco, emphasized Marti’s universal legacy during the ceremony, defining him as “a man of his time and for all time.”
