The Cuban government is exerting itself to defend the socialist system and improve the people’s standards of living.

It especially works to imbue the people with the spirit of defending socialism.

President Miguel Diaz-Canel recently made a special appearance on national TV to say that the Cuban people are fighting against the imperialists’ harsh and criminal anti-Cuba policy and point to the need to abandon illusions about imperialism and have strong faith.

Saying that the government will protect peace as parents do their children, it stated that Cuba is getting fully ready to safeguard the revolution against any kinds of moves of hostile forces.

The government is also pushing ahead with the development of the country’s economy and the improvement of the people’s livelihood, given that it is hard-pressed by the mounting anti-socialist, anti-Cuba blockade moves of hostile forces for frustrating the Cuban revolution.

It channels efforts into making enterprises responsible for the socialist state economy fulfil their role.

Attending the recent summing-up meeting of a district party committee in the capital city of Havana, the President referred to the need to make the work of all enterprises in the district the efforts to solve knotty problems and especially to orient them to improving the people’s livelihood, and emphasized that truly needed enterprises are those creating many more jobs, building up the capacity of working people, making a tangible contribution to the development of counties and paying close attention to kindergartens and the youth issue.

As it steps up the effort to provide the citizens with a stable life, the government also strives to shore up regions with poor living conditions.

It announced its plan to expand nationwide the village transformation campaign, an important undertaking in socialist construction.

Miguel Diaz-Canel recently acquainted himself with living conditions in different villages in the capital city as he made the rounds of them. Repeatedly underlining that the village transformation campaign is a very important undertaking in socialist construction and the revolution starts from the village, he said that now that it has already been launched in Havana, the campaign should be expanded nationwide and pushed permanently without let-up.

The Cuban government’s efforts to safeguard the socialist system and provide citizens with stable living conditions will yield tangible results in the future.
