The Cubans and more than one thousand
representatives from union organizations and social movements worldwide
on Wednesday expressed solidarity in this capital with the best causes
of the peoples.
Parallel
to the traditional issues of support to Cuba are the battles carried
out by millions of workers in the humanity protesting for the effects of
the global economic crisis, organizers of the International Meeting of
Solidarity with Cuba stated.
Participants from several countries took
part of the forum, held at the Havana's Conference Center, a day after
mass marches in squares and avenues on occasion of May Day celebrations.
Among issues to debate were the
actions to demand the return to the island of the five Cuban
antiterrorist fighters unjustly held in U.S. prisons for more than 13
years. Their real crime was to monitor Miami-based violent groups
operating with impunity against his country.
Gerardo Hernandez, Ramon Labañino,
Antonio Guerrero, Fernando Gonzalez and Rene Gonzalez, the latter in
supervised release since October, were detained in September 1998 in
Miami, and condemned to harsh sentences ranging from 15 years to double
life plus 15 years.
The general secretary of the Cuban
Workers' Union (CTC), Salvador Valdes, on Tuesday sent the examples of
solidarity from the Cubans to the workers worldwide who are victims of
the global economic crisis, protest, and are brutally repressed for
demanding their rights.
