We´re amid a disadvantaged struggle, we cannot compete with the big media, so we must appeal to militant work and commitment, and Prensa Latina News Agency is doing it in an excellent way, with humility and limited resources but fighting, Pineda said at the Festival.

Visiting the Prensa Latina stand at the Humanité Festival, Pineda considered the peoples and their just causes are fighting a decisive battle. It is a cultural and media fight that we cannot lose, because that would make us slaves of the enemy, he stressed.

Pineda, also Vice President of the European Parliament’s Friendship Group with Cuba recalled the thought of Cuban National Hero José Martí ‘trenches of ideas are worth more than trenches of stones’.
