Official Joint Release:

Total success with the protests on March 18.

The Coordinadora Nacional Cubana, Plataforma Cuba Democracia !Ya! and El Movimiento Cubano Unidad Democratica, who organized massive protests and manifestations at the international level in front of Cuban embassies in different countries from three continents and also united Cubans and friends in masses around the world want to proudly present that the final result was a total success.

The main objectives for these events is to bring to the forefront the unusual increase of repression in Cuba against the pacifist opposition and the people in general, the extreme crisis facing our political prisoners, and the constant violations to the Human rights. These objectives were fulfilled upon seeing the support and solidarity across the globe. We can without a doubt say: The world had its day of information, the world today knows more than ever what really happens in Cuba and was able to know through television, radio, the press and the Internet what happens to our brothers in the island.

The Coordinadora Nacional Cubana, Plataforma Cuba Democracia !Ya! and El Movimiento Cubano Unidad Democratica, extend our most sincere congratulations and gratitude to all organizations of Cuban exile and other international organizations that although non-Cuban support our fundamental cause, the Freedom of the Cuban People.

This international protest sends a message directly to the dictatorship, our power to unite is proven, your days are numbered; stop immediately the repression against your own people.
