While the U. S. media since 1959 has claimed that Revolutionary Cuba seeks trade with U. S. enemies and competitors such as Russia, in late JULY of 2023 Cuba's powerful Economic Minister Alejandro Gil Fernandez says the exact opposite is true: "Of course, since 1959 we have tried to make the United States, our close neighbor, our top economic partner, not nations that are thousands of miles from our shores. We would be stupid not to seek that economic course with the U. S., but the U. S. blocks that from happening with firm Cuban policies that include the embargo and all other means to starve us into submission."
On JULY 22nd of 2023 above are the Top Five Cuban Headlines circling around the U. S. and the World. Note that, as usual, the U. S. media remains obsessed with headlines that tend to suggest that the Superpower U. S. government and 340 million U. S. citizens should, in the summer of 2023, finally finish off its 64-year quest to overthrow the Cuban Revolution that in 1959 overthrew a U.S.-backed dictator named Batista. But if you skip past the U. S. media's obsession with Cuba, in the Top-Left above you might want to dial up the Reuters Headline on JULY 22nd of 2023. Reuters, based in London, is an internationally famed News Agency that has reporters in Cuba and actually is not obsessed with just overthrowing the Revolution.
So here is the Cuban Headline on JULY 22nd-2023 that involves a key and updated Cuban situation/position as written about by Nelson Acosta, a fair Reuters journalist reporting from Cuba, not from Miami or Washington.
As you see above, on JULY 22nd-2023 the Nelson Acosta/Reuters article permitted Cuba's Economic Minister Alejandro Gil to speak about Cuba's economy, in contrast to the U. S. media that generally only permits Counter Revolutionaries in Miami and Washington to speak about Cuba. Thus, above, Reuters allowed Alejandro Gil to explain how & why Cuba's economy is growing "less than 2% this year and remains 8 percentage points below pre-pandemic levels, while production in sectors such as agriculture, mining and manufacturing was further behind, Economy Minister Alejandro Gil said on Saturday." And Acosta was reporting on that today -- Saturday, JULY 22nd, 2023.
In addition to the London-based Reuters News Agency, OnCuba News, which has reporters and offices in both Miami and Havana, reports fairly about Cuba. For example, OnCuba News, as shown above, reported on Cuba's Economic Minister Gil Alejandro's repetitive statement that Cuba desires peaceful trade and economic relations with the United States: "We are prepared to take advantage of any economic opening with the U. S., but it doesn't depend on us." Of course, that dire quotation doesn't compute with the U. S. media's narative regarding Cuba so Americans are not supposed to see it, but the U. S. media since February of 1962 has repeatedly told Americans WHY the U. S. must maintain its ECONOMIC EMBARGO decade-after-decade-after-decade!!
Since 1962!!!!!!!
