The president of Cuba ratifies faith in socialism by receiving communists from several countries

Since October 28, Cuba is hosting an international congress of communist and workers’ parties, whose delegates were received the day before by President Miguel Díaz-Canel, who ratified the island’s commitment to the socialist model.

“The future has to belong to socialism, capitalism has not shown anything in terms of protection and emancipation for human beings. This is what we talked about yesterday [October 27] with brothers in struggle who are in Cuba to participate in the XXII International Meeting of Communist and Workers Parties,” Diaz-Canel wrote on Twitter.

The event, recently inaugurated in this capital, welcomes 142 delegates from 57 countries, and 73 communist and workers’ parties, and its organizers aspire to generate enlightening debates in the face of current global challenges.

In fact, Díaz-Canel estimated in his meeting with the participants that the congress will promote the design of unity strategies among all the leftist political forces, to face “all the capitalist politics that brings so many evils to this world.”

Cubans approved in 2019, with 86.85% of votes in favor, a new Constitution that ratifies the Communist Party as the leading force of society and communism as an aspiration, although it recognizes various forms of property that coexist with the state.
