The validity of the ideas of Cuba&#8217;s National Hero, Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00ed, in the current context of world instability took center stage at the event, which dedicated a space to the demand for the freedom of the Palestinian people.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the closing of the conference, Cuban President Miguel D\u00edaz-Canel reaffirmed his country&#8217;s commitment to the Palestinian cause.

(&#8230;) I speak, first of all, of the Palestinian Holocaust at the hands of the Israeli government and those who feed this thirst for killing. From here, we demand: Palestine must be free!\u201d, said the president.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier, the youth forum Con Todos y Por el Bien de Todos called for a firm and definitive respect for the cease-fire in Palestine &#8211; agreed after negotiations between Hamas and the Israeli government, brokered by Egypt, France and the United States &#8211; and for a lasting peace in the region.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f43dee9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f43dee9\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d97f7e8\" data-id=\"d97f7e8\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a083942 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a083942\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"722\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gz.foundation\/language\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Diaz-Canel.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5149\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gz.foundation\/language\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Diaz-Canel.jpg 722w, https:\/\/gz.foundation\/language\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Diaz-Canel-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 722px) 100vw, 722px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c075cea elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c075cea\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f57de5d\" data-id=\"f57de5d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e80c13 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2e80c13\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>The Cuban president highlighted the relevance of Marti&#8217;s thought concerning the liberation of the Palestinian people. <\/strong><strong>Photo:\u00a0Canal\u00a0Habana<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In this regard, representatives of youth movements and organizations from Cuba and the world reaffirmed their solidarity with Palestine.
