Maradona on Fidel: The legend is gone

Argentine soccer star Diego Armando Maradona, who is among the voices of the world that pay tribute to the recently deceased leader of the Cuban revolution Fidel Castro, regretted his death by saying that "the legend was gone."

The legacy he left is immense, I hope the world's politicians to learn five percent of the words and legacy that Fidel leaves, Maradona emphasized.

Also, from other latitudes, the Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Romanenko considered the Commander-in-Chief as a great revolutionary leader of our time, a personality he personally knew.

In addition, after the news was known in Caracas, Venezuela, thousands of people gathered in public places to pay tribute to the Cuban leader, to many, a giant in universal history and an insuperable spokesman for millions of poor people in the world.

Similarly, diplomats from dozens of countries expressed their regrets over the death of the Cuban Revolution's historic leader, Fidel Castro, to the Permanent Mission of the Caribbean Island to the United Nations Organization, which on Monday opened a book of condolences.

Meanwhile, Valentina Matvienko, Russian Senate President, in honoring Fidel Castro, declared that a great political personality, a statesman, a social activist, the best-known politician in the world who dedicated his life to his people, has died.

On the other hand, Charly Bouhana, president of Cuba Si Francia association, affirmed in Paris that Fidel Castro showed us the way, now our duty of revolutionaries is never to disappoint him.

After signing the book of condolences opened at the Havana embassy in Paris for the death of the leader of the Cuban Revolution, Bouhana was dismayed and confessed that it was as if a part of our own body had gone with him.
