Its Location & Beauty are the Lures!!
Today -- September 21, 2021 -- Cuba reported 63 more fallecidos, deaths, from COVID-19 but it is lower than recent statistics since the island began a comprehensive vaccination program for its citizens, including children as young as two.
Cuban mothers today in Cuba were happy to see their little girls, like this one, get vaccinated.
The nation of Vietnam has purchased Cuba's Abdala COVID-19 Vaccine and also will be allowed to produce the vaccine in Vietnam. So, in late September of 2021 Cuba continues to navigate around two massive perils -- the Pandemic and the Blockade!!
As you can see above, poor little Cuba has been in a precarious situation since September of 1492 until September of 2021 because all imperial priorities by larger and richer nations -- especially Spain and the United States -- have been obsessed with owning the Caribbean's largest and most beautiful island. Take particular notice of Cuba's titillating location in which geography places it right below the USA's state of Florida. The 1898 Spanish-American War ended with the USA, the burgeoning world Superpower, replacing Spain as the dominant factor in Cuba...at least till January of 1959 when the Cuban Revolution shocked the world by defeating the Batista dictatorship that had been supported by the USA, the world's strongest nation, and by the Mafia, the world's strongest criminal organization. Yet, truth be known, Cuba's GREATEST REVOLUTIONARY FEAT HAS BEEN SURVIVING THE EFFORTS OF FLORIDA AND THE USA TO REGAIN CONTROL OF CUBA since 1959. So, in late September in 2021 the ongoing and ever-expanding threats from Cuba's northern neighbor, even during a deadly pandemic, remain poor little Cuba's primary problem.
Last week the CELAC 2021 Summit -- comprised of the 32 Caribbean and Latin American Community nations -- was held in Mexico City and Mexico's President Lopez Obrador spotlighted Cuba's President Diaz-Canel as his prime guest and prime speaker, highlighting Obrador's herculean efforts to end the U. S. Blockade of Cuba.
On the heels of CELAC 2021 in Mexico City, the airplane shown above landed in Havana carrying the President/Prime Minister of Vietnam and a very large delegation of Vietnamese economic and government officials.
Since April of 2021 Nguyen Xuan Phuc has been both the President and Prime Minister of Vietnam. Since defeating the U. S. in the Vietnam War, Communist Vietnam has been a friend and trading partner of the U. S., with President George W. Bush being the first U. S. President to go to Ho Chi Minh City, the former Saigon, to bang the loud circular gavel and celebrate Vietnam's booming economy. Now...in late September of 2021...President Xuan Phuc's flight to Cuba is highly significant.
Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel graciously has welcomed Vietnam's President Nguyet Xuan Phuc in Havana this week.
On Cuban television today the graphic above shows President Diaz-Canel hosting President Xuan Phuc at a business session in Havana. The caption above points out that Vietnam has already been by far the most important investor in Cuba's vital Economic Zone built around the Muriel Port, which is the best deep-water port in the region able to handle the biggest ships that pass through the Panama Canal. Vietnam and many other nations believe that Cuba's Muriel Port would be the most valuable port in the region were it not for the U. S. blockade of Cuba!! So, that is why Cuban TV said today that "VIETNAM IMPORTANTE INVERSOR EN ZONA DE DESARROLLO EN CUBA" at the Economic Zone surrounding the deep-water Cuban port at Muriel, which is about 30 miles southwest of Havana. At the session above today, President Xuan Phuc said, "Vietnam is much happy with its investments at Mariel and we plan to increase our investments greatly."
The new airplane/airline above is owned by the Madrid-based Iberostar Hotels & Resorts chain that owns 18 luxury 4-star & 5-star businesses in Cuba. The photo above is from an Iberostar ad that confirms it will begin a new stream of flights to Cuba.
This ad today by Iberostar Cuba Hotels & Resorts reminds tourists that they are ready "To Sea You Again." It means that the Spanish Hotel-Resort giant is reminding the world that Cuba has the best beaches in the world, such as Veradero and Cayo Santa Maria.
Directly south below Florida, the beach off Cuba's north-central coast -- CAYO SANTA MARIA -- is currently rated as the "Second Best Beach in the Whole World" by TripAdvisor.
The Iberostar ad campaign currently is focusing on reminders that "As winter 2021-2022 awaits tourists, Cuba's beaches and hospitality beckons everyone."
And by the way, today...on September 21, 2021...Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel posted this interesting paragraph on his Twitter page.
