Camagüey, Cuba, Feb 22 (RHC) The Cuban province of Camagüey, the largest in the country, has chosen 35 candidates for lawmakers to the National Assembly of People's Power (Parliament), including Daicar Saladrigas, director of Adelante, the first newspaper founded by the Revolution.

Although she was already a lawmaker at the 9th Legislature, for her that condition continues to be a challenge, and “actually it is an acknowledgment because I am not a grassroots delegate, but I could be like many worthy Cubans.”

In statements to Prensa Latina, Saladrigas emphasized that in Cuba’s parliamentary system, “People’s Power is based on the constituency of each neighborhood, so commitment is great, and in the 9th Legislature alone we approved 30 laws, gathered in the Constitution of 2019.”

She also recognized that “we can do this work fairly well because we have this system of representatives of the people, who are the architects who demand the transformation, the success of the Assembly will depend on it.”

Regarding the prospects that the deputies will face on March 26, she pointed out that “there are many problems, many challenges, but the approach must be how citizens become the protagonists of the transformations, and for this, we travel the country and we know the people’s situations more closely.”

In February, the parliamentary candidates for the National People’s Power Assembly are visiting communities, institutions, and production centers throughout the country to understand the concerns of their constituents better, in a program that will last until the week before the election date on March 26.
