Küba Devlet Başkanı Raul Castro: Sosyalizmi savunmayı sürdüreceğiz.
Küba Devrimi’nin liderlerinden, eski Devlet Başkanı Fidel Castro’nun külleri, vasiyeti üzerine, dört gün süren bin kilometrelik yolculuğun ardından cenaze töreninin yapılacağı Santiago kentine ulaştı. 25 Kasım’da hayatını kaybeden Castro’nun külleri, Santa Ifigenia mezarlığına defnedildi. Cumartesi gecesi Santiago’da düzenlenen törene on binlerce Kübalı katıldı.
Törende konuşan Castro’nun kardeşi ve Küba Devlet Başkanı Raul Castro, “Gençler, Fidel’in ideallerini devam ettirecekler” dedi. Sosyalizmi savunmaya devam edeceklerini belirten Castro, “Avrupa’daki sosyalist kampın dağılması ve Sovyetler Birliği’nin yıkılmasından sonra oluşan tek kutuplu ve uluslararası tekellerin tek güç sahibi olduğu dünyada, sosyalizmin kazanımlarından ve ilkelerinden vazgeçmeden direnebilir ve gelişebiliriz” diye konuştu.
