'Machado said: Cuban people have learned in the fight that victory belongs to those who resist and fight; those who face the difficulties and dangers, those who do not get intimidated by the enemy, no matter how powerful it is,' the head of State wrote.

At the closing ceremony of the workers' gathering, attended by Diaz-Canel and the first secretary of the PCC Central Committee Raul Castro, Machado Ventura also said that Cubans have learned in the struggle that victory belongs to those who fight and resist.
