During the closing ceremony of the 52nd KNE Youth "Odigitis" Festival in Athens, solidarity with Cuba was reaffirmed, as was support for the struggle its people are waging against the criminal and genocidal economic, commercial, financial, and energy blockade, as well as against new threats and acts of aggression by imperialism.
