Cuba Condemns US Protection of Terrorist Groups
Cuba Condemns US Protection of Terrorist Groups

Caracas, Aug 11 (Prensa Latina) The case of the five Cubans imprisoned in the US demonstrates the impunity of US based terrorist groups, said Cuban National Assembly President Ricardo Alarcon.

At a news conference with media accredited to 16th World Festival of Youth and Students in Caracas, Ricardo Alarcon said the Atlanta Court of Appeals ruling, which reversed the Five´s convictions, extensively documented the terrorist groups´ actions.

On the case of notorious terrorist Luis Posada Carriles, involved in the blowing up of a Cuban airliner that killed 73 in 1976, Alarcon said the Atlanta court referred to all the atrocities he committed.

"If there is a new trial, they better be prepared because it will be a Nuremberg for that terrorist and hypocritical administration," warned Alarcon, who said this time they will not be able to keep it out of the media, as they did in the first one.

He said that on August 9 an Atlanta court reversed the convictions of the five Cubans - which resulted in sentences ranging from 15 years to double life terms - who penetrated violent groups of Cuban exiles to monitor their terrorist activities.
