Chronicle on Cuba - June 2006

Security

June 14: Bolivian President Evo Morales underscored his revolutionary bent by paying elaborate homage to one of his main heroes, Che Guevara, on what would have been the Argentine-Cuban guerrilla icon's 78th birthday. Morales said that he was ready to defend the country "with arms" if the US "empire" attacks Bolivia, Cuba or Venezuela. "Now, it's not the people who are taking up arms against the empire," he said. "What we're seeing is that it's the empire that's taking up arms against the people," Morales said.
"If they do it in Cuba, Venezuela or Bolivia, we're ready to confront (them) and defend - including with arms - the country, the natural resources and the other social transformations," he said. (EFE, 14/6/06)

June 22: In Panama, Venezuelan president, Hugo Chávez, said that if anyone invades Cuba “Venezuelan blood would run too” and emphasized that “we are committed to the core” with the Caribbean nation. “The two are one people”, said Chávez in reference to the relations between Venezuela and Cuba. “We are willing to defend the sovereignty of our twin peoples”, stressed Chávez.
