“Viet Nam is a most cherished name too close to the hearts of all Cubans. To all of us Viet Nam has been an example to follow and an incentive in our struggle.  The Cuban people is very much aware of the extraordinary role played by the people of Viet Nam within the world’s revolutionary movement and in people’s liberation struggles.  Viet Nam has taught an unforgettable lesson to all the exploited and oppressed peoples.  No liberation movement, none of the peoples that have struggled for their independence have had to wage a struggle as prolonged and heroic as that waged by the people of Viet Nam.”
References to the original: September 12, 1973 – During a reception hosted by the Workers’ Party of Viet Nam and the government of the Democratic Republic of Viet Nam on the occasion of Fidel’s visit to that country, he expressed:
"Therefore we may say that the Vietnamese did not fight just for themselves: they fought for all the peoples of the world! They fought for the cause of freedom for humankind!  They fought for the cause of socialism and communism!  The men who died over there, also died for us.  And humanity will eternally thank Vietnam for those services!"

“One has to resolutely oppose the divisive policies of imperialism in the heart of the Non-Aligned Countries.  And it is necessary to seek formula, so that the benefits of this struggle may reach all under-developed countries.”

“
The Revolution has taught us all the idea of human fraternity and solidarity. It has made us all the most profound brothers among whom the blood of one belongs to all and the blood of all belongs to each of the others (Applause). So it is that the sorrow is everyone’s, the mourning is everyone’s, but the invincible strength of millions of people is our strength. And our strength is not only the strength of one people, it is the strength of all the peoples who have now freed themselves from slavery and of all those in the world who struggle to eliminate exploitation, injustice and crime from human society.”
