Tens of thousands of Cubans marched to the U.S. Embassy in Havana on Friday to denounce U.S. imperialism following the attack on Venezuela and the abduction of President Nicolás Maduro. People from all walks of life — military officers, retirees, workers, students — took to the streets to show their willingness to defend their country in the face of U.S. aggression. Watch our report on the march to the U.S. embassy.
The “March of the Fighting People” honored the 32 Cubans who were killed in Venezuela during the January 3 U.S. attack and reaffirmed their support for the Cuban Revolution in the wake of Trump’s threat that Cuba “make a deal” with the United States the ongoing economic war the U.S. is waging on the island.
“No one can mess with us. We don’t accept threats. Cuba deserves respect!” said one protester.
“We came to demand that Cuba remains free, that U.S. imperialism stays out of our affairs,” said another.
