4 Apr 2016
Nobody should be under the illusion that the people of this dignified and selfless country will renounce the glory, the rights, or the spiritual wealth they have gained with the development of education, science and culture. We do not need the empire to give us anything. Our efforts will be legal and peaceful, as this is our commitment to peace and fraternity among all human beings who live on this planet.

30 Dec 2013
Why do they try to hide the fact that the Apartheid regime –that brought so much suffering onto Africa and arouse so much indignation in most nations throughout the world– was the fruit of European colonial powers and was turned into a nuclear power by the United States and Israel, something Cuba, who supported Portuguese colonies in Africa fighting for their independence openly condemned?

Fidel Castro Ruz – TRANSCEND Media Service,
2 Apr 2012
Almost 200 States, supposedly independent, constitute the political organization which in theory has the job of governing the destiny of the world. Approximately 25,000 nuclear weapons in the hands of allied or enemy forces ready to defend the changing order, by interest or necessity, virtually reduce to zero the rights of billions of people.

El petróleo se convirtió en la principal riqueza en manos de las grandes transnacionales yankis; a través de esa fuente de energía dispusieron de un instrumento que acrecentó considerablemente su poder político en el mundo. Fue su principal arma cuando decidieron liquidar fácilmente a la Revolución Cubana tan pronto se promulgaron las primeras leyes justas y soberanas en nuestra Patria: privarla de petróleo.
