Ramiro Valdes, one of the last surviving commanders of Cuba’s Communist revolution, died at 94, President Miguel Diaz-Canel announced on Sunday. Valdes participated in the 1953 attack on the Moncada Barracks alongside Fidel Castro and later fought with Ernesto “Che” Guevara in the campaign that toppled Fulgencio Batista in 1958. He went on to become a top member of the Cuban Communist Party, serving twice as interior minister and once as vice president. As interior minister, he established the notorious G2 intelligence service, modeled on the Soviet KGB, which monitored domestic dissent and foreign adversaries.
