00:00On Friday morning, Cuban men and women strengthened the historic bonds of solidity that unite them with Venezuela

00:06in an act that reaffirmed their support amid a context of U.S. imperial aggression against the Caribbean.

00:11A correspondent, Belén de los Santos, has saw the details.

00:15More than 50,000 Havana residents headed today to the monument honoring the liberators in Montbolivar.

00:22Their goal was to express their solidarity with the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela

00:27amid the escalating aggression and military deployment by the U.S. government that threatens peace in the region.

00:36We are here to support them through this moment and to tell them that whatever their people may need,

00:41we Cubans are willing to give even our lives for our America and particularly for the Venezuelan people,

00:46which is like a brother for Cubans.

00:49We Cubans have more than enough reasons and motivations to continue defending the cause of Venezuela,

00:54which is like defending the Cuban cause.

00:55It is an act of solidarity, as we are used to get from Fidel, Chávez, Maduro, D.S. Canal.

01:00Here is the Cuban revolution and trade unionists.

01:04The first vice president of the Venezuelan General Assembly, Pedro Infante,

01:08expressed his gratitude for this Caribbean embrace.

01:12In a conversation with Telesur, he highlighted the importance of considering this U.S. escalation

01:17as a continuation of a long series of attacks against the popular government of our America.

01:25The U.S. president has declared a few days ago that he authorized the CIA to operate inside Venezuela.

01:30They've truly been operating in Venezuela for years.

01:33They've been operating in different countries for years to overthrow what they consider inconvenient governments.

01:37Let's just remember when they overthrew the government of Joao Aguilar in Brazil.

01:42Let's remember what they did to Salvador Allende in Chile.

01:44Let's remember all of the actions the CIA has taken against Cuba.

01:47Let's remember the CIA's participation in the 202 coup d'etat against commander Hugo Chávez.

01:52Only now they declare it openly, cynically, without a shred of shame.

01:56It's U.S. imperialism in its most imperial form or version.

02:00We believe that, and that's why we are infinitely grateful for the gesture of the Cuban people, of the president of Cuba.

02:07Despite the U.S. aggression against the region, which in addition to the military advances,

02:12is consolidated in the xenophobic attacks against Latin American migrants,

02:16the Caribbean responds firmly, assuring it is not willing to give in to imperial pressure.

02:22Just as hunger is used as a weapon of war against Palestine,

02:31it is being used against Cuba, against Venezuela, against Nicaragua.

02:35But here there are people in resistance.

02:37This morning, another example that our lives will always be at the service of the resistance people, of revolution.

02:45Venezuela raises its voice with the truth, with arguments,

02:48and with the strength of the people firm in its determination to remain free.

02:52Belen de los Santos, for Tell Us Your English, from Havana, Cuba.
