FROM CUBA
Statement of the
Municipalities of Cuba and Human Rights
HAVANA, CUBA - March 4 (Pedro Moises Calderi Tapanes, MDCDH /
Puenteinfocubamiami.org)
–In an effort to find a solution to the plight of the country, members
of the Municipalities of Cuba and Human Rights fully support the “
Proposal for a National Salvation” and hereby make public our support.
Those of us who in our hearts harbored hope of improvement when Dictator
Fidel Castro resign from power, were incredibly disappointed with the
selection of our Nation’s New Council of State.
Furthermore, we consider the selection of Mr. Machado Ventura as First
Deputy Minister of the Council of State in itself, a continuation of the
totalitarian regime, excluding all avenues to a democratic transition in
our homeland and Raul Castro’s speech served to clarify that any future
change would be confined to the structures of the “status quo”.
Apparently, for those in power, fifty years of rule is not enough and
the trail of destruction and suffering the Castro brothers have imposed
on the Cuban people is not enough.
Faced with this grim reality, the groups of the opposition are obliged
to unite, listen and negotiate amongst ourselves. Maybe, together we
might find an alternative that will change the course of our Nation’s
destiny.
