The news of recent days speak for themselves: the Cuban government wants to establish and expand at a rapid pace of economic and political ties in the international arena. However, this strategy does not appear to contemplate, so far, truly democratic and pluralistic changes in Cuba. Most of the contacts are pregnant they have very good democratic credentials, an example of this is the new Russian-Cuban ties. This revival makes us suspect to where the Cuban leadership would like to direct the future of the island. Establishing strong ties with the old Russian nomenclature, now grown into a powerful economic class, would grant the government of Raul not only an economic partner, but a political ally of weight in the international community.
is clear that the government does not want to risk their cards with a Hugo Chavez every day is more belligerent and without the slightest impulse control megalomaniac. For Cuba, the times of the constant confrontations are over, it's time to consolidate power. In this new context is hoping to secure the removal of the old guard with the appropriate positioning of their heirs. However
not think it is a good strategy would once again ignoring the needs of a people who want to live in a system with full use rights and freedoms. In Cuba we need a real opening, any other variant has a high risk of failure. Failure no doubt greatly diminish the chances of peaceful change and organized. We hope to be wrong and hopefully also the government Cuban can understand that the conditions of our country do not give much room to maneuver, we are very far from China or Russia.
Russia and Cuba: the fruits of exchange. Prensa Latina.
