Cuban Revolutionary Army declared Cuba as a Republic defeating the imperialists on the 1st of January 53 years back in 1959. The revolutionaries under Fidel Castro. Che Guevara and others had to wage a grim guerilla warfare to defeat the imperialists to free the country from their clutches. During the last 50 and odd years Cuba under the leadership of Fidel Castro made gigantic steps in bringing socialism near to the people braving the inhuman economic and military blockade and all enemical actions of the imperialist countries headed by US.
I greet the valiant people of Cuba and hope that they will continue their march towards socialism.
