Secretary of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America - Peoples' Trade Agreement, Sacha Llorenti

Caracas, July 26 (RHC)-- The secretary of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America - Peoples' Trade Treaty, Sacha Llorenti, highlighted the transcendence of July 26th celebrations in Cuba.

In a message on the social network Twitter, the top representative of the regional entity pointed out that this date marks a transcendental milestone in the history of Latin America and the Caribbean.  "A handful of men first stormed a barracks, to then take the sky by storm.  His living example guides our steps.  Glory to Fidel!"

Cuba celebrates this Monday the National Rebellion Day, a date that recalls that on July 26 in 1953, young revolutionaries stormed the Moncada and Carlos Manuel de Céspedes barracks in eastern Cuba.

Although the actions against the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista did not achieve their objectives, researchers coincide in pointing out the political importance of the event.
