Since 1960, Cuba has successfully resisted all attempts at a social relapse into capitalism. This has only been achieved with the greatest sacrifices.
The blockade, which has been in place since 1961, has been tightened several times and even after the tepid political thaw under President Barak Obama, it was tightened again by Donald Trump and not changed under Joe Biden.
Reiner Hofmann had an uncle in Cuba who had worked in the Ministry of Industry under Che Guevara. Together with Hilde Gerigk, they have been visiting Cuba regularly since 1985.
The solidarity project with the provincial hospital "Abel Santamaria" in Pinar del Rio emerged from a Naturefriends trip in 1994.
Speakers: Hilde Gerigk and Reiner Hofmann
