Fidel Castro vowed Cuba will prosecute drug traffickers without exception and urged the United States to join a joint effort to fight crime. He noted a tougher penal code but defended Cuba against charges of aiding trafficking, denouncing Miami counterrevolutionaries and criticizing Canada for perceived hints of hostility during the Pan American Games in Winnipeg. The celebration marked the July 26, 1953 assault that launched the Cuban revolution, with a second ceremony scheduled for Matanzas and Cienfuegos.
