HAVANA, Cuba, (acn) The Cuban Workers’ Confederation (CTC) issued a call urging the Cuban people to participate in the national May Day celebrations in response to an ongoing anti-Cuba media campaign by the United States and its European allies.

“In the face of this smear campaign, all Cuban workers —who have never yielded and will never accept blackmail— will ratify our support of the Revolution with the same strength of our five compatriots who remain unjustly imprisoned in US jails and whose freedom we will demand again,” the text reads.

“We will march not only to celebrate International Workers’ Day but also in support of our Revolution and to ratify our commitment to actively participate in the current transformations of our economic model,” the document adds.

“On May Day, we will take to the streets and plazas to show our firm support of the Revolution, Fidel (Castro) and (President) Raul (Castro),” the statement concludes.
