Havana, February 14 (RHC) -- Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel today stressed on his X account that the Revolution is the island's greatest work of love, on the occasion of the celebration of the Day of Love and Friendship.

The president stressed on the social network that love is the engine that drives Cuban revolutionaries. "Cuba is Love, and from here we also extend it to our beloved Palestine".

For his part, the president of the National Assembly of People's Power (parliament), Esteban Lazo, sent congratulations to the Caribbean nation and recalled Marti's premise referred to that "the only strength and the only truth there is in this life is love. Patriotism is nothing but love, friendship is nothing but love".

The President of the Council of State also congratulated the children's company La Colmenita, which is celebrating its 34th anniversary.

On the same platform, Prime Minister Manuel Marrero quoted José Martí's words, "The only truth of this life, and the only strength, is love. Patriotism is nothing but love. Friendship is nothing more than love".

According to popular chronicles, the date of February 14 was chosen as the Day of Love and Friendship almost everywhere in the world because it marks the anniversary of the death of St. Valentine, a saint associated with romantic love and confronted with the prohibition of marriage in the Middle Ages.

When he was a bishop, Valentinus disrespected the orders of the emperor who forbade marriages during the war so that his soldiers could fight better and continued to secretly unite passionate young men. He was arrested and sentenced to death    (Source:PL).
