Deputy Yolanda Ferrer, president of the International Relations Committee of the National Assembly of the People's Power (ANPP), received on Tuesday a delegation of the Party of the European Left, headed by its Vice-president, Maite Mola. Accompanying Mola are other representatives of the parties such as the French Communist Party, the Communist Re-foundation Party of Italy and the Greek Zyriza. During the fraternal meeting, Ferrer informed visitors about the updating of the Cuban economic model, and basically its social aspects. She explained the work of the National Assembly as the supreme organ of power of the Cuban State and the role of deputies in Cuban society. In this regard Maite Mola said that Cuban democracy is one of the best in the world. Yolanda Ferrer also expressed her appreciation for the unconditional support European left parties have given the Cuban people and the demonstrations of solidarity in issues such as the release of the Cuban Five and the struggle that is carried out for the lifting of the U.S. embargo, which has lasted more than 50 years.
