Statement
of the Municipalities of Cuba and Human Rights
HAVANA, CUBA - March 4 (Pedro Moises Calderi Tapanes, MDCDH /
Puenteinfocubamiami.org) –In an effort to find a solution to the plight of
the country, members of the Municipalities of Cuba and Human Rights fully
support the “ Proposal for a National Salvation” and hereby make public our
support.
Those of us who in our hearts harbored hope of improvement when Dictator
Fidel Castro resign from power, were incredibly disappointed with the
selection of our Nation’s New Council of State.
Furthermore, we consider the selection of Mr. Machado Ventura as First
Deputy Minister of the Council of State in itself, a continuation of the
totalitarian regime, excluding all avenues to a democratic transition in our
homeland and Raul Castro’s speech served to clarify that any future change
would be confined to the structures of the “status quo”.
Apparently, for those in power, fifty years of rule is not enough and the
trail of destruction and suffering the Castro brothers have imposed on the
Cuban people is not enough.
Faced with this grim reality, the groups of the opposition are obliged to
unite, listen and negotiate amongst ourselves. Maybe, together we might find
an alternative that will change the course of our Nation’s destiny.
Havana, February 26, 2008

President of the Municipalities of Cuba and Human Rights
