Cuban officials have held talks with the United States government to seek solutions to the crippling blockade imposed by Washington, President Miguel Diaz-Canel said, as the Trump administration’s threats to take over the Caribbean nation escalate.
“These talks have been aimed at finding solutions through dialogue to the bilateral differences we have between the two nations,” Diaz-Canel said in a video aired on national television on Friday.
Diaz-Canel said “international factors have facilitated these exchanges”.
He said no petroleum shipments have arrived on the island in the past three months, which he blamed on the US energy blockade.
If I am being honest I dont think socialism will fall in cuba. What I am woried about is the US using this as some sort of ploy, or not relenting. I should have made it clearer in my earlier comment, I have full faith and confidence in Cuba, just none with the United States
I don’t know. I mean, i have faith in the Cuban people, i just…think about how I probably would have said the same thing about the soviet union or the GDR.
I’ll try to keep my spirits up if i can though
Dont count chickens for the Empire, especially before they are laid. There are reasons to be worried but Cuba has existed procarously as an AES state 90 miles away from the US. I see no reason to expect that the revolution is going to fade from Cuba.
