A Cowardly American Generation Allows It!!
The Paris Club consists of the twenty-two {22} nations shown in the graphic depicted above. It evolved regarding an issue about the Caribbean island nation of Cuba. These nations claim that Revolutionary Cuba owes them billions of dollars. When Cuba agreed to some of the claims, the island nation reached a settlement with what is known as the Paris Club to begin regular payments to settle the debts. Currently the debt totals $5.2 billion and Cuba was diligently, as agreed, paying $2 million a year to whittle down the debt. But because of two truly gruesome and devastating events -- {1} The genocidal Blockade being committed on Cuban families by the USA's Trump administration; and {2} the worldwide COVID-19 Pandemic -- Cuba is having dire financial problems. And for those two awesome reasons, Cuba asked the Paris Club to allow it to suspend the yearly payments for two years. The United States of America, with a Republican administration in the White House, shamefully is using its unique power to try to prevent the Paris Club from accepting the simple humanitarian gesture because the United States of America wants to continue its genocide against innocent masses of Cuban families on the island. Of course, at least two of the 22 nations listed above -- Brazil and Israel -- would likely support Republican U. S. governments if they nuked Cuba. But decent Democratic nations such as the UK, Canada, Spain, Japan, Norway, etc., are starkly against a powerful nation committing genocide against people in a much smaller and weaker nation. Thus, the Paris Club will accept Cuba's proposal to suspend the debt payments for two years. Thankfully, the Paris Club is an organization that does not allow the United States of America to have veto POWER over its decisions. And Thanks to the Paris Club for this statement against genocide against 11.2 million Cubans on the island.
