French association classes Cuba as beacon for the peoplesCuba Linda French Association on Sunday claimed that Cuba and its Revolution represent more than ever a beacon for the peoples and hope for a better world.

Paris.- In a message for the 63rd anniversary of the Cuban Revolution, the French association – established in 1998 to foster rapprochement between the two nations – praised Cuba´s resistance against what it branded as “the aggressive and permanent harassment of the United States.”

2021 was a particularly complex year due to COVID-19's negative impact and to the pain it caused to the Cuban families, and especially because of the vicious US attacks and its tightened criminal blockade so as to stifle Cuba's economy, the association warned.

None of these actions precluded Cuba from reaffirming that its people have their destiny in their hands to build up a dignified and fairer society, better for all its inhabitants and in solidarity with all peoples.

Cuba faced up these challenges resolutely, proving to the whole world its people are on the right track.

Cuba Linda celebrated Cuba´s breakthroughs amid the present complex scenario, particularly its fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, by developing its own vaccine candidates that made it possible to immunize 90% of its population and share them with other nations. (PL)
