President's Trip Was Important

    On his four-nation trip seeking help from Algeria, Russia, Turkey and China, Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel was warmly...even lavishly...received by the four key foreign Presidents -- Tebboune, Erdogan, Putin, and Xi. But most observers have concluded that the promises that China's Xi Jinping personally gave to President Diaz-Canel are the most important.
     The USA's top News Agency, the Associated Press, as you can see above, reported from Beijing just how important Xi Jinping's promises to Miguel Diaz-Canel were, stressing that China now says that Cuba's economic survival is considered one of China's "core interests." The AP explained it this way: "China generally defines core interests as the defense of its economic and political development aims, along with control over territory it claims, especially self-governing Taiwan. No specific issues or other countries were mentioned in the Chinese government news release. Diaz-Canel's visit is a further sign of how China is trying to jump-start its in-person diplomacy after a virtual shutdown of such exchanges during the pandemic." China is generally considered the prime...or only...threat capable of overtaking the United States as the world's economic and military Superpower.
       The AP article above also said: "Diaz-Canel was quoted as saying his visit 'shows that we attach great importance and attention to the friendly and cooperative relationship between Cuba and China.'" And the AP also concluded: "China is Cuba's second largest trading partner after key oil producer Colombia, and has provided buses, locomotives and other equipment for the island's drive to upgrade its decrepit infrastructure. Chinese firms have also invested in mineral extraction in Cuba but on a limited scale."
    Today is November 25th-2022. On November 25th-2016 revolutionary icon Fidel Castro died at age 90 in Havana.
    On the anniversary of his death on November 25th-2016 millions of Cubans are remembering things such as...Fidel Castro's revolutionary victory in 1959, many of his quotations, his defense of his revolution at the Bay of Pigs in 1961, the world-record assassination attempts that he survived before dying of old age at 90 in 2016, etc., etc., etc.
