José María Aznar, president of the Foundation for Social Studies and Analysis (FAES), has sent today his condolences to the family of the political prisoner Orlando Zapata, who died yesterday, Wednesday 24 February, after 86 days on hunger strike.


In his condolences, Aznar regrets that the Cuban dictatorship "has killed Orlando Zapata Tamayo, political prisoner of the Communist tyranny which oppresses the Cuban people" and declares that "his testimony will forever be at the side of freedom." The president of FAES also sent his "warmest support" to the dissidents who "fight against the dictatorship, and for democracy to arrive as soon as possible to the Cuban people."


Aznar has included his message in the book of condolences that the Ladies in White Association, comprehended by relatives of Cuban political prisoners and of conscience, have published on their website for those people who would like to express their sorrow for the death of the political prisoner and that will later be sent to his relatives.


José María Aznar's message of condolence is the following: "I would like to send my heartfelt condolences to the family of Orlando Zapata Tamayo, political prisoner of the Communist tyranny which has oppressed the Cuban people the last 51 years. The dictatorship has killed Orlando but his testimony will forever be at the side of freedom. With my warmest support to all Cuban dissidents who continue to fight for freedom, against the dictatorship, and for democracy to arrive as soon as possible to the Cuban people."
