Comments

The Fidel Castro phrase, said at his speech on New Delhi's Non-Aligned Countries Summit, declares his thinking of developing the country, as the way to reach peace.

The image represented is from "La Guerra y la Paz" (The War and the Peace), drawing by Picasso, based on his famous Peace Dove.



This is the only Cuban coin that shows Fidel's signature.
