CUBA, August 12TH, 2010.- The leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, highlighted the great contribution of former Mexican presidential candidate Manuel Lopez Obrador to the struggle to prevent war, about which he has warned in recent days.

In his latest written reflections Fidel Castro referred to a book written by the Mexican politician entitled “The Mob That Took over Mexico in 2012”, which he describes as a bold and irrefutable denunciation of the United States.

The Cuban revolutionary leader emphasized the description made by Lopez Obrador in his document on how Washington devours its sister nation, to which it had already stolen more than 50 percent of its territory.

Also in his reflections, Fidel reviews recommendations made by Lopez Obrador, who warns that changes needed in Mexico must not only be aimed at achieving economic growth, democracy, development and social welfare. They should also imply the crystallization of a new school of thought grounded on popular culture, respect for diversity and protection of the environment. (Cubaminrex - RHC)
