Cuban President Raul Castro led a meeting of the Western Army Military Council
In the meeting held Friday, it was reiterated that the mobilization of Army reservists and militiamen, known as "Operacion Caguairan", will continue for the time being, with the aim of developing their military abilities.

The importance of enlisting women in the defense of the country, especially through the female voluntary military service, was also stressed.

During the meeting, Raul Castro read a message from the leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, who congratulated General Julio Casas Regueiro for his promotion to Minister of the Revolutionary Armed Forces (FAR).

"I think the enemy has not managed to entangle us thanks to Raul Castro's wise and serene speech," Fidel Castro noted in that text.

On behalf of the Military Council, Western Army chief Lieutenant General Leopoldo Cintra, praised Raul Castro's work as FAR minister for almost five decades.

"We know you are the right person to preside over the Council of State and Ministers, because like Fidel Castro, you have taught us the meaning of the Cuban Revolution," Cintras stated.
