Dies in Cuba, at the age of 92, another general of the "historical generation"Antonio Enrique Lusson Batlle

Division General Antonio Enrique Lussón Batlle died this Wednesday in Havana at the age of 92, according to a note published by the Revolutionary Armed Forces (FAR) and released by the official press.

The body will be cremated and his ashes will be exposed this Friday from 9 a.m. to 12 a.m. in the Veterans Pantheon of the Colon necropolis. Later they will be transferred to the Mausoleum of the II Eastern Front, in Santiago de Cuba, where he was originally from.

Lussón Batlle has been lavishly praised by the official press, which highlights that since joining Castro’s Army in 1957 he demonstrated “in every action courage and courage, for which he was promoted to the rank of captain and named platoon leader.” At that time he was part of Column 9 José Tey, led by René Ramos Latour, but a year later he moved to the Frank País García II Eastern Front and in a few months to the Abel Santamaría, already with the rank of commander. According to Granmathe promotion was due to his “outstanding participation in combat, discipline, spirit of sacrifice and courage”.

His military successes during the Revolution earned him a privileged position and he was responsible for moving the so-called Victory Caravan to Havana.

In addition, between 2000 and 2008 he was head of the Special Troops of the FAR.

In the political sphere, Lussón was Minister of Transportation, First Vice President of the National Institute of the State Reserve, and Vice President of the Council of Ministers between 2010 and 2015. In 2016 he returned to the Central Committee of the Communist Party, of which he had already been a member in his premiere and as a founding member. He also held the position of deputy in the National Assembly of People’s Power for several legislatures.
