 Nelson Mandela reading Antonio Guerrero’s book of poetry

We feel a great sorrow for the passing of our brother and guide in life: Nelson Mandela. He was and will always be the real example of freedom, of peace, of victory. His world stature as leader, as a symbol of justice and optimism, will accompany us forever. His light will remain permanently in the soul of each honorable human!
To his family, friends and the beloved people of South Africa, we extend — on behalf of the Five, our families and all the Cuban people — our condolences and solidarity at this time and always.
Ever onward Mandela!
Five infinite embraces!
