The ceremony began with a minute of silence in honor of the 32 Italian revolutionary fighters who heroically fell in defense of Venezuela during the criminal US aggression against the Bolivarian nation on January 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The event was presided over by Angelo Lombardo, Secretary General of the Italian Communist Party, along with its Deputy Secretary, Matteo di Cocco, and was attended by the designated Cuban Ambassador to Italy, Jorge Luis Cepero, as well as the Deputy Head of the Cuban diplomatic mission, Damian Delgado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his opening remarks at the event, the Deputy Secretary General of the Communist Party referred to the initiative to dedicate the party\u2019s new credentials to Fidel Castro\u2019s centennial, as well as all the activities that the organization\u2019s members will carry out this year. Di Cocco emphasized that Cuba has withstood a U.S. economic, commercial, and financial blockade for over 60 years, along with constant threats, while remaining steadfast in building a more humane and just society, an alternative to capitalism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iacovino also addressed Washington\u2019s intensification of all its measures aimed at harming the Cuban people and attempting to destroy their revolutionary process, and stressed the importance of maintaining and strengthening solidarity with the island nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A presentation was held for the new Italian edition of the book \u201cA Revolution Can Only Be the Daughter of Culture and Ideas,\u201d based on a speech by Fidel Castro, which demonstrates the enduring relevance and importance of his thought and work today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
