As an act of solidarity, the Czech People in Need Foundation launched a campaign on Monday in which a symbolic cell was built on Prague's Wencelslas Square - the site of many important events in Czech history, such as the Velvet Revolution in 1989. Under the Stop Repression in Cuba campaign, a volunteer represents each of the 75 imprisoned. An array of dynamic personalities from politicians to artists, some former prisoners under the communist regime in Czechoslovakia will one after the other spend an hour in the cell. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/kuba_protest1.jpg?timestamp=1591448767 Czechs demonstrate in support of Cuban political prisoners https://english.radio.cz/czechs-demonstrate-support-cuban-political-prisoners-8084423 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
