60 years of the victory of the Cuban revolution





On January 1, the Republic of Cuba celebrated the 60th anniversary of the victory of the 1959 revolution. On January 1, 1959, the Rebel Army, led by Fidel and Raul Castro, their comrades-in-arms, among whom the legendary Ernesto Che Guevara stood out, entered the capital Havana.

From that day on, the Cuban Republic bravely opposes the world of capitalism and protects socialist gains. The USSR and other socialist countries were destroyed by the efforts of the external and internal counter-revolution, but Cuba survived. Since 1991, the "oracles of capitalism" promise the fall of the socialist system on Liberty Island, but every time they are confounded. Cubans still say "No!" to attempts to dump their country into a capitalist nightmare.

Two years ago, Fidel Castro, the leader of the Cuban Revolution, passed away, but the Communist Party of Cuba was headed by his brother Raul. And in the 2018, Miguel Diaz-Kanel became the head of state authorities in Cuba. He immediately made it clear that Cuba would not step down from the socialist path. Arriving on an official visit to Russia, he pointedly visited the  Lenin Mausoleum. The next point of his journey was the capital of the DPRK - Pyongyang. The arrival of Miguel Diaz-Kanel to the Korean capital was the brightest event: the Cuban leader and DPRK leader Kim Jong-un showed that their countries are more connected in history or economic relations - these two countries are outposts of socialism in the modern world.




In  2019, it remains to wish the Cuban people to continue their path to a brighter future just as decisively, to repel all attacks of enemies and attacks of deceitful "friends" from the world of capitalism, or make concessions to an unfriendly and directly hostile external environment, and persevere in defending revolutionary principles.

Let the year of the 60th anniversary of the victory of the revolution be another successful year for the Cuban people in their movement towards their goals.
