Cuban Grassroots Orgs Extol Fidel Castro
Cuban CDRs - Committees in Defense of the Revolution - the massive grassroots Cuban organization (more than eight million members) highlighted Sunday President Fidel Castro´s moral stature.
In a message published by Juventud Rebelde newspaper, the CDR National Executive office expressed that the president, who has dedicated his life to fulfilling his duties, is giving us a new lesson in moral stature, bravery, unselfishness and confidence.
The CDRs supported Fidel Castro´s decision to not accept the position of president of the Council of State or Commander in Chief, at the 7th National Assembly legislature beginning today.
To our adversaries, the moment might seem suited for confirmations and aspirations, reads the CDR statement, pointing out that revolutionary surveillance will be an insuperable defense against any enemy attempt.
For the Committees in Defense of the Revolution, this is the time to maintain the unity that has so far preserved the most dearly and beloved wishes and sacred aspirations of this nation throughout history.
