Díaz-Canel summarized the PCC visit to Las Tunas capital.

“There cannot be unity without participation, without listening to the people,” insisted the first secretary of the Party's Central Committee and President of the Republic, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, in summing up, together with Roberto Morales Ojeda, secretary of Organization, the PCC visit to the capital of Las Tunas.

Las Tunas, Cuba.- The strengthening of unity, the improvement of ideological work, the political assurance of the economic measures, and the confrontation of the negative tendencies present in society will continue to be the priorities of the political vanguard of the country in the current 2025, assured Díaz-Canel and added: “Regardless of who governs in the United States.”

Each of these goals, he urged, will be achieved by encouraging the citizens in general, and in particular the communist militants, to take part in the decisions and actions that will solve their difficulties and concerns. He stressed that political, social, and institutional communication is at the heart of this. "We have made many public criticisms of the current way in which we are still promoting this pyramid of management; above all, we must speak out on social networks, capitalize on political and economic debate," he said.

The Cuban leader made it clear that the most important thing is not his presence in these districts, but the prior and comprehensive examination made by the Central Committee to the municipality to then learn from what works well and keep it that way, and to look into how to change the situation where things are going badly. “With our intelligence and heroism, we can overcome these or any other difficulties,” he said.

The Cuban president praised what he described as the working atmosphere in the capital of this eastern Cuban province and also called for the application of the macroeconomic stabilization program announced at the beginning of last year, which at the end of the calendar year showed some successes. In particular, he pointed out, the increase in budget revenues, more order in relations between the state and non-state sectors, the reduction of tax evasion, more efficiency in the banking process, and better use of budgets. "However, there is still a long way to go," he said.

For his part, Roberto Morales Ojeda pointed out that the economic indicators of the main municipality reflect progress, but not enough. "Let's ask ourselves what more can be done, without imposing illusory goals, by strengthening the links between the Party's professional cadres and the grassroots," he said, clarifying that “it is about going to the grassroots and then reviewing what we can improve and what we can unblock." Strengthening social cohesion, he explained, “is achieved by giving participation to the people, by listening to them. First the nuclei, the militancy.”

Since last Monday, a large committee of the Party's Central Committee has held numerous exchanges not only with members of the political organization here but also with representatives from various spheres of domestic social and economic life.

Inflation, transport, insufficient banking, communal hygiene, and the basic food basket are the main problems of concern to the inhabitants of the provincial capital, their subsequent report showed. The commission also made several remarks on the quality of the work of the political and mass organizations in this part of the province.

Although it praised the territory's work to reduce the fiscal deficit, it warned that this is not yet reflected on the table and in the pockets of the citizens.
