Miguel Ángel Gómez Caboverde

“I do agree that there are millionaires [in Cuba]. Do you agree with the economic freedom? And what does the freedom of speech mean to you? Cuba is free, one moves here, one moves even there, and without any difficulties. Yes? Yes. Miguelito, how many times have you traveled outside Cuba? Exclusively when I went to fulfill the mission in Angola. And the rest, why haven't you traveled outside? Because I was not interested in traveling outside.”

“I never liked being a militant. I am a fidelist, at any cost I am a supporter of Fidel [Castro]. But not of the communist regime. In other words, communism is to you different from fidelism... Yes, to fidelism. And the raúlism [sympathy to the regime of Raúl Castro, the brother of Fidel]? No, the raúlism not, because raúlismo does not enter the matter, as it is was out of service."

“The treatment they gave me here in Cuba, was at the beginning… So, I arrived here, they gave me the treatment, I recovered, and from there they send me a plane to Guantanamo, I returned to Havana on the plane for the next medical shift, and from there ... They gave me a car and all that stuff, they sold me a refrigerator, a room set, a bedroom set, a dining room set, a washing machine, a blender, all that stuff. Did they sell it to you? Yes, at a low price… at a military cost.”
