Today -- on June 19th-2023 -- the image above was taken from a nationwide Cuban newscast. Abdiel and Indira are emblematic of one of Revolutionary Cuba's most vividly important successess since it overthrew the U.S./Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship in Cuba on January 1st, 1959. Revolutionary Cuba has always invested heavily in the power of Television News to project its revolutionary views...and that has been true since 1959 till this very day in June of 2023. The University of Havana, which was historically closed by Batista prior to the Revolution when he sent squads of goons out to assassinate student leaders such as the martyred Jose Echevarria, has concentrated on educating talented journalists such as Abdiel and Indira to anchor the island's many regional and national Newscasts, as shown today.
For example, in the annals of US-Cuba Relations since 1959, Americans are not supposed to see or comprehend the two photos shown above. They were taken in December of 1959 when Fidel Castro made his first televised address to the Cuban people. He was introduced by the legendary Marta Rojas who was the greatest journalist in first Batista's Cuba and then in Castro's Cuba. In this December of 1959 televised speech to the Cuban people Fidel Castro said: "First let me say, Batista was paid by foreign criminals from the Mafia, from Spain, and by the United States so he would allow the foreigners to rape and rob and kill the Cuban people at will. The Revolution that now rules you will permit you to rule your own country as you see fit." To this day in June of 2023, those words and those two photos above are denied emphatically by the vast array of Counter Revolutionary Cubans and Americans.
Now to advance from the two historic black-and-white 1959 photos to the color photo above taken today -- June 19-2023, we can take cognizant of what the Cuban Television Newscasts today are showing and telling the Cuban people. The image above shows Cuba's current President Miguel Diaz-Canel and his wife Lis Cuesta landing in Rome to discuss with the Italian leaders the drastic economic problems confronting the Cuban people, with the six-decade-old U. S. Embargo postured as being the prime reason for Cuba's plight. This flight to Rome comes after President Diaz-Canel in this month of June-2023 has hosted important delegations in Havana from China, Russia, and Iran -- generally considered the USA's three prime competitors/enemies.
In Rome the Cuban President Diaz-Canel, in the grey suit, was warmly welcomed by Italy's three most powerful people -- President Sergio Mattarella, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, and Pope Francis.
The ultra-modern Cuban Newscasts today provided live video coverage of the presidential visit to Rome by the island's First Couple, Miguel and Lis.
Starting in 1959 with Fidel Castro's aforementioned first televised address to the Cuban people, to this day on June 19th-2023 Cuba's untra-modern Newscasts are ubiquitous in reporting Revolutionary News to the Cuban people.
And, YES, in June of 2023 TV broadcasts in Cuba routinely tell the Cuban people such things as...even most Americans believe that the U. S. Embargo/Blockade against them should end, and that even most Americans believe that the United States should end its massive Military Base in Guantanamo Bay and return the lush port to its rightful owners, the Cuban people.
