Havana, Aug 6 (Prensa Latina) President Fidel Castro called the Cuban youth attending the 16th World Youth and Student Festival in Venezuela to fight for truth and solidarity for the benefit of humanity.

We must fight and win the battle for the truth, said the Cuban statesman on addressing over 1,000 young delegates to the event at Havana's Convention Center.

The world youth should know that humanity is in danger and that the problems it has so far suffered are nothing compared to those it must deal with if they do not win this battle for conscience.

I think that the Festival is held at a country in the hemisphere with many things at stake. Rather than preserving something there is a lot to create and Venezuela now stands as symbol of the many things we need to conquer, stressed President Fidel Castro.

It is not just to preserve independence, well being, or the missing justice or human rights but rights truly human that have not been conquered since the people can expect nothing noble or honorable as long as there is an arrogant and selfish empire on Earth.

Hence denouncing a possible attack against the Venezuelan people which is preceded by the on going present campaign led by the US Administration and the corporate media would be the most important contribution of the Cuban delegates to the Festival.
