arrived in Cuba to today. He stressed the resistance of the Cuban 
people which has kept on offering humanitarian aid and cooperation in 
different fields to numerous countries despite the reinforcement US 
aggressive policy over the last few years.

course received their blue bandanna and committed themselves to follow

them the opportunity to approach that model of man that Ernesto Che 
Guevara represents.
