HAVANA, Cuba, Jul 11 (ACN) The Cuban Revolution is the dignified and heroic people, who resist and create, said today the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Cuban communist party and president of the country, Miguel Diaz-Canel.

The blockade, the practice of state terrorism, the invasion attempt and the so-called soft coup, which had its greatest expression on July 11, 2021.

With the deployment of a large-scale political-communication operation, they wanted to opportunistically take advantage of the combined impacts of the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, of the economic crisis derived from it, and of the measures that tightened the blockade to an unprecedented level, the text indicated.
