Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel today expressed his gratitude for Mexico’s solidarity and support regarding the heroic resistance of the Cuban people.
In a post on the social media platform X, the president highlighted the steadfast and decisive support provided by the previous president of the Latin American nation, Andrés Manuel López Obrador—support that serves to strengthen a cherished friendship.
“I am in retirement, but it pains me to see attempts to exterminate the brotherly people of Cuba for the sake of their ideals of freedom and their defense of sovereignty,” Obrador stated in a post on X.
“To those who believe this is a dispute that does not concern them, I remind you of what General Cárdenas said during the Bay of Pigs invasion: ‘It is not right to advocate for our indifference in the face of their heroic struggle, for their fate is our own,'” he added.
Furthermore, he invited the entire population to make donations to an account established by the civil association *Humanidad con América Latina* (Humanity with Latin America)—an initiative launched by writers and journalists to purchase supplies aimed at aiding the Cuban people.
“Let everyone contribute whatever they can!” he concluded.
