Julio Pugot, Counsellor of the Cuban Embassy (UK) speaks at a meeting to mark the 200th Anniversary of Marx's Birth held in April 2018 in Saklatvala Hall, Southall. Contributions from the meeting: Joti Brar, CPGB-ML https://youtu.be/NdSWVfdHN88 Julio Pugot, Cuban Embassy UK https://youtu.be/jp9PuNWBJo0 Cde Pugot brings greetings from Cuba, where Cde Miguel Díaz Canel Bermúdez has recently been elected president - the first leader of the country who did not directly take part in the revolution, indeed the first who was born afterwards, in Socialist Cuba - a true child of the revolution! Raul Castro continues to head the Cuban Communist Party and Army, and this is a sign of strength and continuity in the revolution, the ambassador tells us. Cuba continues to extend aid to workers in need throughout the world, despite the ongoing blockade which has been further entrenched by Trump - like the 11 presidents that preceded him. Comrade Ranjeet thanks Cde Pugot for speaking at the meeting and introduces the main Speaker Cde Dan, noting that even the BBC and financial capital now agreed, in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, that Marx had not only been the "greatest thinker of the millennium", but that he had much to say about the nature of capitalist economy and crisis - however they sought to strip him of his revolutionary essence. For Marx's true conclusions were that workers must take control and institute the rule of the working class - the dictatorship of the proletariat; the rule of the majority - in place of the dictatorship of the financial oligarchy, and build a planned economy, capable of satisfying the needs of working masses, and building a sustainable and humane economic order. ______________________________________________ Subscribe!
