“Last month, the United Nations voted overwhelmingly to call on the United States to lift the embargo. Only the United States and Israel voted no. (Ukraine, Colombia, and Jair Bolsonaro’s Brazil were the only abstentions.) And 184 nations voted yes.” I think if the Cuban regime wants to survive both foreign intervention and not being overthrown, it must cease repression and open complete dialogue with all different bodies in the Cuban society. However, given the nature of the regime, I doubt that such a move would happen. The recent examples in Belarus, Egypt and others show that the opposite is usually the case. The US must end its brutal sanctions on Cuba
“The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.” —Samuel P. Huntington, The Clash of Civilisation and the Remaking of the World Order, 1996, p. 51
