HAVANA, April 25 (Xinhua) With massive car and bicycle caravans across the country, and a regatta along the capital of Havana s seaside Malecon, Cubans demanded on Sunday the lifting of a six-decade-old U.S. embargo against the island, known as blockade among locals.
In Santa Clara, located some 270 km east of Havana, hundreds of masked drivers, cyclists and bikers also gathered to make their way through the city. It is a clear demonstration the Cuban people support the socialist revolution and that the U.S. blockade against the country must end, Santa Clara resident Diamela Lopez told Xinhua.
