San Salvador, Aug 17 (Prensa Latina) The historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, remains in the memory of Salvadorans in solidarity with the island today, 99 years after his birth.
Fidel lives on in the validity of his thought as one of the great figures of the last century, which allowed him to travel to the future to warn the world of the dangers of the unpayable foreign debt for developing countries and the climate crisis that today threatens human existence, for example, according to attendees at a cultural gathering in this capital.
Ideas like these were expressed at the event held this Saturday in this capital, where solidarity groups commemorated the work of the “Comandante” in an atmosphere that included songs by Cuban singer-songwriter Carlos Puebla, whose lyrics expressed his anti-imperialist views.
Many remembered the verses of “the fun is over, the Commander arrived and ordered it to stop,” alluding to the end of the debauchery of the American monopolies in Cuba,
The tribute was enlivened by Salvadoran singer Moisés Ramos, who performed several pieces popularized by Puebla and his group.
Present at the event was Cuban Ambassador to El Salvador Tomás Lorenzo, who took the opportunity to denounce the latest US aggression against his country, which adds to the measures implemented by the Donald Trump administration during its first term.
The Cuban diplomat thanked Salvadorans for their solidarity in honoring Fidel on his birthday.
On August 13, among other activities, solidarity groups gathered at the José Martí roundabout in this capital to commemorate Fidel’s birth and his great work for humanity, with the profound internationalist sentiment that characterizes the Cuban Revolution.
