In their tour of Venezuela, the Cuban Five were honored in the capital city of Caracas on Monday, where they were hailed for infiltrating right-wing exile groups that plotted against Cuba. They were also cheered for withstanding prison terms of up to 16 years in the United States. The last members of the group were finally released in December 2014. Fernando, Ramon, Antonio, Gerardo and Rene showed that those moments were not in vain, said the head of the Caracas administration, Ernesto Villegas, who praised their dignity, patience, tenacity and consistency. teleSUR
