A Cuban at the creation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

I was sent this with short notice so I'll post the accompanying PDF file sent to Val by Ernesto Hernandez Busto. The file relates the accomplishments of Guy Perez Cisneros, Cuban Ambassador to the United Nations and co-Chair of the committee responsible for the creation and discussion of the Declaration among the United Nations delegates.

While a Cuban was at the creation of this document, it is the Cuban regime on the island that is doing its level best to make a mockery of its noble goals and language. Irony indeed.

George,
Thank you for shareing just a wonderful part of Cuban history with us.
After 50 years its almost hard to believe that Cuba was once part of the civilzed world.
