Julio Iglesias who is the internationally known singer from Spain declared his support for Juanes concert in Cuba. Julio Iglesias made his declarations in an interview with the radio station based in Colombia called W Radio.

Mr. Iglesias reiterated that the intention of Juanes is to «sing in Cuba and nothing more». He called Juanes a «great artist and humanitarian» who will be «transmitting a message of love and music» to Cuba.

It is refreshing to see people who are supporting a concert which is only meant to promote music. There were other developments in the Juanes story.

Gorky Avila [who is one of the singers of the Cuban Rock Group Porno Para Ricardo] stated in an interview with Oscar Haza [the host of the news talk show «A Mano Limpia» [Transparent Hands] transmitted by the US Latin Station America Teve] that he is ready to participate in the concert by Juanes «if the Cuban Authorities allow me».

Gorky Avila reminded the people watching the interview that his group as well as himself have been jailed repeatedly for music that criticizes the Castro Government in Cuba. In the case of Gorky Avila, the ball appears to be in the court of the Cuban Government.
