Biden says U.S. stands with Cuban protesters after historic weekend demonstrationsPresident Biden voices support for the protesters in Cuba, a day after thousands of people took to the streets in historic anti-government demonstrations. Translation: The CIA came with a bag of money to PAY dissidents to foment discontent with the current govt, which happens to be one of the most defiant in the western hemisphere when it comes to US hegemony. It's paint by the numbers at this point. Self proclaimed anty Cuban contractor for destruction should have to recap the history of his predecessors and it will be not a happy memory. Even the anti-Democrat values is able to report on the Cuban protests. The Canadian Socialist Broadcasting Company (The CBC) will avoid anything to counter their socialist agenda. It is scary how poorly the CBC informs Canadians. CBCPolitics CubaLibre Canada

Cuban president defiant, blames embargo after protestsA defiant Cuban president lashed out at the U.S. embargo against Cuba on Monday in response to rare protests across the country over the lack of food, fuel, medicine and other goods during the pandemic. The Cuban government is responsible for its people. The Cuban government is more interested in using its peoples scarce resources to build luxury hotels where Cuban people ironically cannot afford to be. Their government is totally corrupt - I wish the people of Cuba freedom. I don’t understand how the US was able to keep Guantanamo Bay for 120 years. It makes no sense that they have this strict embargo on this country but they still have a prison in the country. Take the embargo off and the American tourists will have influence on the country socialism / communism is MISERY.
