This ultra-interesting photo & headline was taken TODAY on MAY 13th-2024 and it depicts a conference at the famed Hotel National in Havana involving high-level Cuban and USA representatives. The headline above in the Cuban state media says: "CUBA & UNITED STATES CELEBRATE AGRICULTURAL CONFERENCES." Please note that this amazing conference, which started today in Havana, will continue in Washington even as the the U. S. Embargo against Cuba, which began in 1962, is causing drastic "food shortages {hunger} and blackouts in Cuba" and while the U. S. is involved in two raging wars around the world along with masssive criminal trials involving former president and current key presidential contender Donald Trump and yet another massive criminal trial starting today involving Senator Bob Menendez who happens to be the most powerful Cuban-American in America and the man most responsible for making sure that the U. S. maintains its drastic CUBAN EMBARGO. Amid all that, amzingly, you can go back and re-study that photo-caption today regarding the meeting at Havana's Hotel National!!!
In recent years many respected polls have revealed conclusively that one of the greatest pillars of the great U. S. Democracy, a strong and honest news media, is alarmingly now "not trusted by most American citizens." Many notable Cuban observers believe that an untrustworthy mainstream U. S. media is a key reason that, dating back to the 1950s as far as Cuba is concerned, the U. S. media's promotions of policies of extreme counter-revolutionary Cuban-Americans -- such as Bob Menendez, the Diaz-Balart brothers, Ros-Lehtinen, etc., etc. -- have massively dictated the USA's ultra-harsh Cuban policies. But despite the overall distrust of the U. S. media, there remain many great and true U. S. journalists...such as Tracey Eaton. As the former superb head of U. S. news bureaus in Mexico and Cuba, Eaton for the past 17 years has been a beloved Journalism Professsor at Flagler College in Florida. And recently he has returned to active journalism and documentaries...so, as usual, the best and most honest journalism you will find on US-Cuba Relations is from Tracey Eaton on fourms such as his "TRACEY EATON JOURNALIST" website, which is data republished by other respected media sources.
In the last paragraph shown above and written by Tracey Eaton, he says: "A forgotten story is that Menendez may not have reached the pinnacle of political power without the support of hardline Cuban exiles, including some accused of violent attacks on Cuba."
Above is a federal U. S. prosecutor pointing to bundles of cash and gold bars discovered by the FBI in a closet at Bob Menendez's home, plus a luxury car he alledgedly received as one of his illegal gifts as a foreign bribe.
Also above see/read the update from Tracey Eaton as Bob Menendez today on May 13th-2024 goes on trial for massive fraud for alledgedly taking brides, including in gold bars, from foreign countries such as Egypt and Qatar while he was am ultra-powerful U. S. Senator from New Jersey since 2006. Many of those years Menendez was the sole Chairman of the Senate's Foreign Relations Committee. Back in 2017, just before he was re-elected to yet another 6-year term in the U. S. senate, Menendez barely survived a huge federal trail that charged him with multiple felonies involving Miami and Dominican Republic operatives...a trial that ended in a controverial "hung jury" verdict.
Above is the headline today on MAY 13th-2024 from the Asssociated Press about the start of the latest federal trial of powerful U. S. Senator Bob Menendez. Not only has Menendez for many years has had massive influence regarding overall U. S. foreign policies, but he only has also been widely considered the prime U. S. leader dictating extreme anti-Cuban polcies, including making sure that the drastic six-decade-old U. S. EMBARGO on Cuba remains firmly in place.
Meanwhile...yesterday on Mother's Day -- May 12th, 2024 -- the Cuba media reminded Cubans of cultural events even as the U. S. and much of the international media are headlining the fact that the Caribbean island, a few miles south of Florida, is experiencing drastic food shortages, continuous power blackouts, etc. As shown above, the Cuban media also stressed events such as a major concert by popular singer Monika Mesa.
Also...for three days last week Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel and Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez were in Moscow meeting with their Russian counterparts Vladimir Putin and Sergei Lazrov.
Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez, shown above second from the right, set up and approved this handshake last week in Moscow between Lazrov and Diaz-Canel. Rodriguez said: "Any fair and honest observer knows that Cuba would rather be friends to a neighbor like the United States than a faraway foreign power such as Russia. Even Russia knows that. But since 1959 the United States has employed tragic tactics, including starvation and deprivation, to overthrow Cuba's revolutionary government. All the while the United States tries to shame us when we try to make friends with countries that are not trying to starve or deprive our people."
Any map shows the location of little Cuba just a few miles below the United States and thousands of miles from Russia...and China.
Although drasically short on money, Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel has spent many hours and miles visiting or hosting representatives of other countries that Cuba hope will sign new "Cooperation Deals" with the desperate Caribbean island. Would Diaz-Canel prefer such an agreement with the United States? As Cuba's former Education Minister, the answer to that question appears to be an easy one, but one he doesn't expect the United States to ask him.
Cuba and the EMBARGO!!
