The Square in Northwestern Moscow Will Be Named After Fidel Castro
TASS informs, that the square in northwestern Moscow will be named after late Cuban revolutionary leader, founder of the first-ever socialist state in the Western hemisphere Fidel Castro, who died on November 25, 2016 at the age of 90.
According to the news agency, Moscow’s authorities earlier planned to name two driveways in the Severnoye Medvedkovo district after Castro. Thereby the decision was taken by the city’s inter-departmental commission on renaming territorial entities. The square is located in the Sokol area near a street named after Salvador Allende, "the president of Chile who was Castro’s friend. "
In the nearby Khoroshevsky district in the Russian capital, there is also a street renamed in honor of late Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez.
