Havana, Aug 13 (Prensa Latina) Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel thanked The People’s Forum for the tribute it paid in the United States to the historic leader of the Revolution, Fidel Castro, on the occasion of his 99th birthday.
The president acknowledged the gesture of the American solidarity group, whose tribute, he wrote in X, “is moving and confirms the undeniable closeness between the peoples of Cuba and the United States, in these days of right-wing extremism and unhealthy hatred of global revolutionary thought.”
A neon sign located at the intersection of 34th Street and 8th Avenue in New York City today commemorates the 99th birthday of the commander-in-chief, various media reported.
“A revolutionary leader and defender of the oppressed, Fidel lives on in all those who fight for a better world,” wrote The People’s Forum, the organization promoting the initiative, on the social network.
