Cuban Workers Will Support 6th Communist Party Congress Agreements on International Worker’s Day, Says Trade Union Leader.

CUBA, April 29, 2011.– “The Cuban people will express during upcoming May Day parades their support for the recently approved agreements of the VI Communist Party Congress and its commitment with its successful enforcement,” said Salvador Valdes Mesa, Politburo member and secretary general of the Cuban Worker’s Union (CTC).

This celebration will be a brilliant culmination of the massive debate carried out by workers and people in general of the Guidelines for Economic and Social Policy of the Party and the Revolution finally adopted at the Sixth Congress of the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC) added Valdés Mesa, in statement to Granma newspaper.

The participants will also demand the immediate release of the Cuban Five, Gerardo Hernández, René González, Ramón Labañino, Antonio Guerrero and Fernando Gonzalez, imprisoned in the U.S. since 1998 for informing on the criminal plans of anti-Cuban groups settled in the U.S. state of Florida.

This year’s festivities are dedicated to the younger generations of Cubans and coincide with the 50th anniversary of the proclamation of the socialist character of the Cuban Revolution and the Victory of Playa Girón (Bay of Pigs). (Cubaminrex-RHC)
