Buenos Aires, December 12 (RHC) --Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel met Wednesday with survivors of the former Higher School of Mechanics of the Navy (ESMA), known as underground detention, torture, and extermination center of the Argentinian dictatorship (1976-1983).

At the former ESMA, now the Memorial Museum - Space of Remembrance and for the Promotion and Defense of Human Rights - the Cuban President learned from the very victims about the crimes and torture they were subjected to at the site.

The Cuban head of State pointed out that the memorial offered an enormous testimony on human rights violations by the dictatorship, and that it also helped understand the contempt of the Empire  --the United States-- for the Latin American peoples.

He underlined that the Cuban Revolution has faced all kinds of obstacles, attacks, and threats throughout its history and that it has a legacy of resistance, struggle, and emancipation.

'In the face of every challenge, we resist; in the face of every challenge, we find the path to victories, and in the face of every challenge, in which we resist and win, we also find an emancipatory response. That is our victory,' he told the survivors.

"That history, when this remembrance also enriches it, it boosts that legacy of resistance, victory, and emancipation," he highlighted.
