Solidarity, dedication and sacrifice, vocation and pleasure in giving oneself to others, were evident every day, within and beyond our borders, he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The President, on behalf of Army General Ra\u00fal Castro Ruz, the Party and the government, recognized all who have contributed to the &#8220;miracle of Cuban resistance,\u201d with their achievements and contributions, with everything that has brought light amidst this complex situation, which is not the first that has demanded collective effort and sacrifice, nor will it be the last. Thanks to them, Cuba is at the forefront of the fight for a better, possible, world, after the tragedy of the pandemic, he said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are entering a new normality, the President continued, thanks to the efforts and results achieved by an entire people, and at the same time, citizen responsibility continues to be crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;For a people like ours, solidly united around the sovereignty and independence of the nation, which has found in socialism our own path to inclusive prosperity and the sustainability indispensable to planetary survival, there are enormous, but not impossible, challenges. We can overcome them all, we can conquer everything,&#8221; the Cuban President insisted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Every day is an opportunity to prove that it is possible, as Fidel taught us, as Raul proved to us, as we are all proving. Nothing, no one can stop us now. Love for Cuba unites and mobilizes us, and that love will save us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Every thought at this moment is a seed. To think as a country is to sow the future. Today Cuba saves, heals and sows the future. When no other reasons are apparent, we can always be sure that Cuba\u2019s tomorrow absolutely depends on the present we build together, today, here and now,&#8221; he concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/en.granma.cu\/cuba\/2020-10-09\/cuba-saves-heals-and-sows-the-seeds-of-our-future\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"http:\/\/en.granma.cu\/cuba\/2020-10-09\/cuba-saves-heals-and-sows-the-seeds-of-our-future\">Granma<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The President, on behalf of Army General Ra\u00fal Castro Ruz, the Party and the government, recognized all who have contributed to the &#8220;miracle of Cuban<a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cubasupport.ie\/latest\/cuba-saves-heals-and-sows-the-seeds-of-our-future\/\"> [&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":101011,"featured_media":2906,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2905","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cuba"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":8272,"url":"https:\/\/www.cubasupport.ie\/latest\/peoples-movements-in-the-us-demand-end-to-blockade-against-cuba\/","url_meta":{"origin":2905,"position":0},"title":"People&#8217;s movements in the US demand end to blockade against Cuba","author":"Editorial Team","date":"September 29, 2023","format":false,"excerpt":"On Friday, September 22, dozens of citizens belonging to different people's movements marched in New York City demanding an end to the US imposed blockade against Cuba.
