To illustrate a story about the presentation to Fidel Castro this week
of a medal from the Ecuadorean National Assembly, the official website
Cubadebate on Wednesday used a photograph made last October during
another such ceremony.
The picture shows Ecuadorean Vice President Lenin Moreno Garcés giving
Castro a medal for sending Cuban doctors to the Manuela Espejo Mission,
which cares for the disabled in Ecuador. Others in the image are
unidentified.
The photograph was not published in Cuba by the national media at the
time, though it was released to the international media by the
Ecuadorean government.
In it, Castro is seen leaning to accept the medal because Moreno is
wheelchair-bound. He was shot in the back during a robbery attempt in 1998.
