Havana, Sep 22 (RHC) The president of the National Assembly of People's Power of Cuba, Esteban Lazo, expressed his sorrow over the death of prominent military chief Antonio Enrique Lussón.

Through the Twitter profile of the legislative body, Lazo conveyed his heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and other close people on the death of the Hero of the Republic of Cuba, a reserve major general and also a deputy to the parliament.

During his long career, Lussón carried out important military and civilian responsibilities, from his incorporation in 1957 to the Rebel Army, led by Commander in Chief Fidel Castro, to fight against the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista (1952-1958).

Founder of the Communist Party of Cuba, he was a member of its first Central Committee, a delegate to its congresses, and a deputy to the National Assembly of People's Power (Parliament) in several legislatures.

He was awarded several decorations, and at his death, he held the honorary title of Hero of the Republic of Cuba.

His body will be cremated and his ashes will be exhibited next September 23 at the Veterans Pantheon of the Colon necropolis in Havana, where they will remain for their later transfer to the Mausoleum of the II Eastern Front, in the province of Santiago de Cuba. (Source: Prensa Latina
