The Nicaraguan Solidarity with Cuba Coordinator meets today to plan the 50th celebration of strength, struggles and victories of the Cuban people against the empire, informed Edgardo Garcia, president of the organization.

About 300 delegates from groups throughout the nation will meet in the capital to prepare celebrations of the January 1, 1959 victory, Garcia said.

The groups are studying how to express their support against the blockade and demand for freedom of the Cuban Five imprisoned in the United States for fighting terrorism, as well as other issues.

"Through these resolutions we are developing a plan of mobilization, broadcasting and sensitizing in favor of the Cuban Revolution and its battle," Garcia said.

He also pointed out that the meeting is in preparation of a regional conference of solidarity with Cuba to be held in Panama in October.

Graduates from Cuba, the Che Guevara Committee and all Nicaraguans who have had the marvelous experience of sharing this process of changes and victories in the Island, Garcia stressed, will support coordination.
