Alarcón highlights importance of international solidarity in the case of the Five
IF Barack Obama really wanted to try and convince us that he is aspiring to a new start in relations with Cuba and Latin America, nothing else occurs to me other than to ask him to make use of his attributes and release the Five, affirmed Ricardo Alarcón de Quesada, president of the National Assembly of People's Power, who was giving an update on the case of the Cuban anti-terrorists incarcerated in the United States to participants in the 8th International American Studies Conference.

HUMAN Rights Watch (HRW) is again going too far against the Cuban Revolution in a vain attempt to sully the island’s impeccable work for the dignity and authentic human rights of more than 11 million Cubans.
