U. S. acknowledges solidarity with terror victims

HAVANA, December 6 (José Antonio Fornaris, Cuba-Verdad / (www.cubanet.org) - Officials from the U. S. Interests Section in Havana expressed appreciation for Cuban expressions of solidarity with terror victims in New York and Washington in a letter to dissident Isabel del Pino.

The letter, signed by section chief Vicky Huddleston, thanked del Pino for a "book of signatures and photographs of Cubans expressing their condolences and condemnation of the terrorist acts of September 11."

Del Pino for just under two weeks opened the doors to her home so that people could sign the book, and then forwarded it to the Interests Section. Del Pino is the president of the Humanitarian Association Followers of Christ the King. The organization is often persecuted by the government as an unauthorized group. It has as its guiding principle, said del Pino, "a vocation to serve our fellowmen."
