The Cuban Revolution is facing its most dangerous period ever. Since the beginning of the year, US imperialism has massively ramped up its decades-long assault by enacting an oil blockade, bullying Latin American countries to expel Cuban doctors and implementing secondary sanctions (forcing hotel operators and mining companies from Spain, Canada, Australia and other countries out of the island), threatening military invasion and indicting Raul Castro.

In this context, the Cuban leadership has approved a series of economic measures which, if implemented, would mean the restoration of capitalism.

What is the history of the Cuban Revolution and what are its accomplishments? Why do we say it is the duty of communists all over the world to defend it? And how can it be saved? Leading comrade Jorge Martin will introduce this vital discussion.
