Which of the following statements best explains Castro's rise to power in Cuba?

Question

A. Che Guevara helped Castro build a military force.
B. Menchú supported Castro.
C. Neruda wrote a poem encouraging people to vote for Castro.
D. The U.S. helped Castro and his military overthrow the capitalist government.

Answer 1

A. Che Guevara helped Castro build a military force.

This statement best explains Castro's rise to power in Cuba, as Che Guevara was a key figure in the Cuban Revolution, working closely with Fidel Castro to develop the guerrilla warfare strategy that ultimately led to the overthrow of the Batista regime in 1959. The other statements do not accurately capture the significance of key events or figures in Castro's rise to power.
