Cuban Doctors in Surinam Condemn Release of Luis Posada Carriles

CUBA, May 15, 2007.- Cuban doctors offering their services in Surinam held a scientific conference May 14 in which they condemned the release of notorious criminal Luis Posada Carriles and demanded freedom for the five Cuban antiterrorist fighters held in US prisons.

During the scientific conference, held in the capital Paramaribo with the attendance of Cuban ambassador to Surinam Andres Gonzalez Garrido, and the members of the Operation Miracle free eye-surgery program, Urologist Juan Antonio Barral Garcia gave a presentation on kidney carcinoma and offered his vast experience as specialist and surgeon.
Dr. Barral Garcia has offered his services at Paramaribo's Academic Hospital for more than a year now.

Doctor Eddy Millan called on all Cuban internationalist doctors in Surinam to keep combining their medical practice with professional and scientific studies.

Ambassador Gonzalez Garrido said the work of Cuban doctors in Surinam will ratify the high prestige of Cuban medical sciences. He underscored the political will of the Cuban people to keep condemning the release of international terrorist Luis Posada Carriles, as they demand freedom for the five Cuban antiterrorist fighters, who have been jailed in the United States for more than eight years now.

Fernando Gonzalez, Ramon Labañino, Rene Gonzalez, Antonio Guerrero and Gerardo Hernandez, known as the Cuban Five, were given extremely long and unfair sentences by a biased Miami court for having collected information on Florida-based ultra-right groups that have carried out terrorist actions against the Cuban people with the complicity of several US administrations during the past 45 years.
