The solidarity organization argues that Gerardo Hernandez,
Fernando Gonzalez, Ramon Labañino, Antonio Guerrero and Rene
Gonzalez are purging underserved sentences, since they were
contributing to protect –by legitimate and peaceful means-
the territorial integrity of their country and the safety of
their compatriots.
The text criticizes the double standard of the US
government, which refuses to admit the injustice committed
against The Five, while it strives to protect international
terrorist assassin Luis Posada Carriles.
Likewise, it demands of Obama the release of Oscar Lopez,
Avelino Gonzalez and Norberto Gonzalez, confined for
struggling –in accordance with their principles and natural

their Puerto Rican homeland.
The message, circulated on the occasion of the visit of the
US President to Puerto Rico, underlines that the head of
state can return these patriots to their homes and
homelands, the Prensa Latina news agency reports.
Also, at the Czech Republic, members of the
Solidarity-with-Cuba Movement at Usti Nad Labem organized,
for the fourth year in a row, the climbing of the Milesovka
Mountain (over 800 meters high) to send from its top a
message of solidarity to the five Cuban heroes and demand of
Obama their immediate release.
This initiative of the Regional Committee of the Communist
Party of Czechoslovakia was supported by the office of the
Czech-Cuban Friendship Association in that region, which
every year mobilizes a larger number of youngsters and
children, most of them relatives of members of that office.
Venezuela’s ambassador to Bratislava, Victor Hernandez,
joined this meeting in solidarity with The Five, adds the
