"On June 3rd, we will celebrate the 95th birthday of Army General Raúl Castro Ruz, and we will do so with a collective embrace of a man whose heart is bound to this land and whose life's guiding principle is loyalty."
This is how the National Bureau of the Young Communists League (UJC) posted on its Facebook profile, calling for a popular day of action called "Raúl's 95th Birthday," urging people to contribute "love and respect from the neighborhood to the school, from the university to the trenches, to multiply every message, every poem, every song, every story, as a sincere recognition of his human sensitivity, of the one who knew how to mourn Vilma's passing without shame, of the one who led the process of updating the economic model without ever renouncing social justice, of the one who has always promoted peace. What greater lesson could there be for us, those who inherited a country that does not surrender, than this blend of firmness and humanity?"
The statement also expresses that 'on the centenary of Fidel, his brother in spirit and struggle, we understand that greatness is not inherited, but sown through example. And Raúl has sown every day that unwavering loyalty, unyielding to fatigue or hardship. That is why we love him as the steadfast patriot who teaches us to defend the Revolution, with tenderness and with a rifle, with study and intelligence, with our heads held high and our hands outstretched."
The movement also calls upon the creativity of children, teenagers, and young adults to express, through every possible initiative, their admiration and love for an exceptional man like Raúl.
"May June 3rd find us guided by Fidel's memory and encouraged by Raúl's presence; because the new generations are not here to repeat slogans, we are here to demonstrate that loyalty is action. And action is defending what has been built, transforming what is malfunctioning, and multiplying the love we feel for this man who, with one foot in the stirrup, continues to tell us: 'Yes, we could, yes, we can, and yes, we will,'" the call to action adds.
"Come on, Cuba! May this 95th be a huge embrace for a dear friend and a leader beyond reproach. Raúl is Raúl!"
