Cuban Communist Party

The Cuban Communist Party (PCC) is the ruling political party in Cuba, founded in 1965, following the Cuban Revolution led by Fidel Castro. As a Marxist-Leninist party, it aims to build a socialist society based on state control of the economy and social equality. The PCC has a significant influence on all aspects of Cuban life, including politics, culture, and education. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, it has faced challenges and sought reforms while maintaining its one-party system. The party's leadership is crucial in shaping Cuba's policies and governance.
