Happy Day, Cuban Mother, master of everyday life, who creates and sustains life with the passion and beauty of artists. Thank you for so much. Here goes our embrace, the president wrote on the social network X.

Other high-ranking leaders, such as Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez, also congratulated Cuban mothers on this day.

Warm congratulations to all Cuban mothers, examples of love, resistance, creativity and sacrifice on this Mothers’ Day, he wrote in his message.

Rodriguez especially greeted the workers in that portfolio and the Higher Institute of International Relations, worthy representatives – he said – of the revolutionary diplomacy.

Every second Sunday of May, Cuba celebrates Mothers’ Day.

The celebration became official on April 22, 1921, when the Havana City Council approved the celebration of this date, which was extended to the whole country in 1928, according to press reports of the time.
