The Central Council of EDON would like to convey its deepest condolences to our comrades in UJC, for the death of comrade Fidel Castro, leader of the Cuban revolution. It is indeed, a sad day for the people of Cuba and the people of the world.
We strongly believe that in the face of comrade Fidel, an ideal was represented, and ideals never die. Comrade Fidel has dedicated his life fighting for his country and his people. With his leadership, a shine example was set for the peoples of the world to follow, that however small a country is, when facing the enemy, the unity and revolutionary spirit of its people will prevail. His devotion on the cause of Cuba, until his death, has set the way of revolution for future generations to follow, until the day that the people of Cuba will enjoy their independence, sovereignty and socialism, against any efforts from the US and EU.
We take this opportunity to express once again our solidarity to the people of Cuba and our firm position on the need for the immediate repeal of the inhuman, criminal and destructive commercial and financial blockade that the US impose against Cuba and its people since 1962. We also condemn the crimes of imperialism and the ongoing US abuses against the Cuban people and call an end of the direct and indirect interventions in Cuba that aim at the termination of the revolutionary process.
The youth of EDON Cyprus are inspired by your example. We will make any effort to strengthen the fraternal bonds between our organizations, enhancing in this way the international solidarity to the struggles of our youth and people.
Hasta la Victoria siempre!
Central Council of EDON
