Hon. Mr. Alexis Tsipras
Prime Minister of Greece:
I warmly congratulate you for your brilliant
political victory, details of which I followed closely through the channel
TeleSur.
Greece is very familiar among Cubans. She
taught us Philosophy, Art and Sciences of antiquity when we studied at school
and, with them, the most complex of all human activities: the art and science
of politics.
Your country, especially your courage in the current
situation, arouses admiration among the Latin American and Caribbean peoples of
this hemisphere on witnessing how Greece, against external aggression, defends
its identity and culture. Nor do they forget that a year after Hitler's attack
on Poland, Mussolini ordered his troops to invade Greece, and that brave
country repelled the attack and drove back the invaders, forcing the deployment
of German armored units towards Greece, diverting them from the initial target.
Cuba knows of the bravery and the fighting
capacity of the Russian troops, which, together with the forces of their
powerful ally the People's Republic of China, and other nations of the Middle
East and Asia, always try to avoid war, but would never allow for any military
aggression without an overwhelming and devastating response.
In the current political situation of the
world, where peace and the survival of our species hangs by a thread, every
decision, more than ever, must be carefully thought-out and applied, so that no
one may doubt the honesty and seriousness with which many of the most
responsible and serious leaders struggle today to confront the calamities that
threaten the world.
We wish you, esteemed compaƱero Alexis
Tsipras, the greatest of success.
Fraternally,
FIDEL CASTRO RUZ
