The Cuban Revolution was a socialist revolution of national liberation that triumphed in Cuba on January 1st 1959 led by Fidel Castro's 26th of July Movement (M-26-7) against the neocolonial military regime of Fulgencio Batista.
While the M-26-7 was not an explicitly Marxist–Leninist organization, its top leadership was largely dominated by Marxist–Leninists such as Fidel Castro, Raúl Castro and Che Guevara, and its earliest announced goals were intentionally kept moderate in order to retain integral support from liberal elements (such as the primarily student-based Revolutionary Directorate) as well as international support from countries hostile to communism.
