Like the day before, the activists gathered on Monday in front of the Cuban embassy in central London to defend the diplomatic legation of a group of opponents of the Cuban political process stationed across the street.
We are here to defend Cuba from the attack of the imperialist governments against its right to organize as a socialist country in the interest of the majority of its people, the editor of the Fight Racism newspaper, Fight Imperialism, David Yaffe, told Prensa Latina.
The militant of the Communist Revolutionary Group of the United Kingdom assured that “this is a battle, and we are winning it”.
Madji, an Algerian living in London and a long-time friend of the Caribbean island, reaffirmed, for his part, his commitment to defending the Cuban Revolution.
We cannot accept these new attempts to destabilize the situation within Cuba, and as friends of Cuba that we are, we will always defend it, he stressed.
From the makeshift rostrum, and amid shouts from Cuba Yes, Yankees No and Down with the blockade, Jonathan Silverman, from the Communist League of the United Kingdom, recalled that one day before the mercenary invasion of Playa Girón in 1961, Fidel Castro warned that the United States would never forgive Cubans for having made a socialist revolution right under their noses.
