Diario de Cuba, Madrid, 3 July 2015 — Several opposition figures from
the Island attended in training for Cuban leaders in Madrid, from 2-3
July, looking at the Chilean transition, which was organized by the
Association of Ibero-Americans for Freedom (AIL), under the coordination
of the former Minister General Secretariat of the Presidency of Chile,
the economist Cristian Larroulet and Carlos Alberto Montaner, among
other intellectuals.

Casa de America hosted the meeting behind closed doors, focused
exclusively on strengthening Cuban civil society. The workshop is part
of a continuation of those held in July of last year on the Spanish
transition and in March of 2015 on the formation of the Democratic Unity
Roundtable of Venezuela (MUD).

These events have as an objective, in addition to the formation of Cuban
leaders and learning about transitions, to promote and facilitate
meeting spaces, coordination and reflection among the participants. The
writers Roberto Ampuero and Mauricio Rojas were others invited to join
this initiative, with closing remarks on the dialog addressing the
convening topic.

Among the Cuban opposition figures were Yoani Sanchez, Reinaldo Escobar,
Eliecer Avila, Manuel Cuesta Morua and Laritza Diversent.
