Havana, November 26 (RHC)-- Hundreds of young people remembered the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, seven years after his death, accompanied by President Miguel Diaz-Canel and other top leaders of the country.

On the emblematic steps of the University of Havana, scene of emancipation struggles and forge of Fidel Castro's revolutionary ideas, the political-cultural evening took place, highlighting through art the imprint of the Cuban leader.

Delivering the central words of the event, the first secretary of the Young Communist League, Aylín Álvarez, affirmed that Fidel Castro continues to be for Cuba "the guerrilla fighter, the statesman, the paradigm of a whole people who defends his Revolution, the Commander in Chief".

Cuban youth feel his closeness, seek his legacy, turn to him whenever it is necessary to know how to act with decorum -he pointed out- and affirmed that this was not a tribute to an absent hero, nor a posthumous tribute full of pain and sadness, but a demonstration of life, since his presence is unanimous and permanent.

In times as complex as the ones we live in -said the youth leader- it is essential to return to Fidel, to his words when he said: "we have no other alternative but to dream, to continue dreaming, and to dream with the hope that a better world has to be a reality, and it will be a reality if we fight for it".

The event was part of the activities developed throughout the country and abroad to pay tribute to the outstanding revolutionary, architect and main promoter of the process of socialist transformations defended by the island, who is recognized as one of the great statesmen of the 20th century.

The students gathered at the University of Havana also reaffirmed their support to the Palestinian cause in the face of the genocide perpetrated by the Zionist state of Israel against the civilian population of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. (Source: Prensa Latina)
