MAY DAY SPEECH CALLS FOR END TO DEATH PENALTY IN CUBA
I sincerely plead with Cuba to abolish the death penalty. Of course other nations have the death penalty -- 137 others, including the United States itself. But Cuba is different from other nations. Cuba has taken a path which distinguishes it for its outstanding concern for the welfare of human life. No other nation is the provider of free health care to the world. No other nation is the provider of free education to lift the minds of the citizens of the world. Cuba, you are a world leader in human rights and respect for life. And the death penalty demeans Cuba. You are better than that. So I call on Cuba to, by example, lead a world campaign to end the death penalty.
