Cuban President Raul Castro issued a statement on Saturday expressing concern on current developments in Bolivia and reiterating Cuba’s firm support of the legitimate government of Evo Morales.
In his statement, which was published by Cuban television, Raul Castro said that political, economic and media pressures on the government of Evo Morales threaten the South American country’s integrity.
The statements denounces Washington’s interference with Bolivia’s domestic affairs and reiterates that the situation taking place in that country must be solved by the Bolivian people, according to the principles of sovereignty, independence and self-determination.
Bolivia’s constitutional order and territorial integrity must be respected, said Raul Castro in his statement.
Cuba also calls for continental solidarity with Bolivia, since the developments in that country could lead to a dangerous escalation of violence threatening peace and security in the continent, and particularly in South America, which would only be useful to the enemies of regional integration, the document reads.
Raul Castro recalls that Cuban workers are offering their services in all nine Bolivian departments, in an effort to boost health and education programs in the benefit of the Bolivian people. Among the achievements of the joint work of Cuban and Venezuelan workers in Bolivia, illiteracy has been wiped out of 225 of all 327 municipalities, standing for 664, 000 citizens who already know how to read and write. The joint effort expects to declare all 327 Bolivian municipalities free of illiteracy by the end of the year.
Cuba reiterates its position to keep cooperating with Bolivia under the principle of non-interference with that country’s internal affairs, and as far as the government and the people of Bolivia welcome that cooperation, the document reads.
The statement welcomes the most recent news about the re-establishment of peace in the Bolivian department of Pando, the ongoing dialog and the observance of decisions taken President Evo Morales.
The Cuban government also reiterates its full support of the legitimate government of Evo Morales, who was elected and ratified President by overwhelming majority. Cuba also reaffirms its solidarity with the Bolivian people, concludes the statement by Cuban President Raul Castro.
