Semper Fidel



In 1986, President of the Council of State, President of Cuba (position abolished), Prime Minister of Cuba (position abolished), Secretary-General of the Non-Aligned Movement, First Secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba, and Commander in Chief of Armed Forces Fidel Castro once gave a speech in Havana that lasted for 7 hours and 10 minutes.

Another facially befurred leader, President Abraham Lincoln, delivered the Gettysburg Address in about two minutes.
