Hard to Believe!!!
This Associated Press photo shows Giorgia Meloni, the first-ever female Prime Mnister of Italy. She has held that position sternly since 2022 and prior to that she was a non-political factor before her brave and stern speeches boosted her to the top spot in Italian politics. Because the United States has incomparable worldwide influence financially and militarily, most nations don't dare try to help the dire economic situation in Cuba. But Giorgia Meloni is, uh, not your normal world leader. She is not afraid to help the drastic economic crisis devastating masses of Cuban families.
As Prime Mnistter of Italy, Giorgia Meloni is a political conservative that now happens to have dear friends such as South African-born Elon Musk, the world's richest person who now happens to be a powerful force in U. S. politics since January of 2025 when Donald Trump returned as President of United States.
Today is February 25th in 2025 and if you Goggle the Top Cuba News Items circling around the world today you see the Top Two as shown above. One reveals that Cuba's legendary Cigars are bucking the U. S. Embargo of the island and actually regaining some of its worldwide sales. And, thanks to Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Italy has started the Linea Verde Project designed to help Cuban families who are suffering from dire shortages of food, medicine, electricity and other necessities.
In this last week in February in 2025 most of the headlines related to Cuba tell the world of the impending "economic collapse of the island" while U. S. President Donald Trump and his top cabinet member Marco Rubio tighten the already drastically tight economic sanctions against Cuba. But, at least today, some help from Italy and the newly found Asian appetite for Cuban cigars appears to show two positive signs for the maligned Cuban families.
But what Cuba needs the most is for the nearby United States to allow tourists to freely visit the Caribbean's largest and most beautiful island-nation, the way the U. S. flooded Cuba with tourists in the 1950s during the US-friendly and Mafia-friendly Batista dictatorship.
Back in the 1950s ubiquitous U. S. ads like this promoted massive tourism to CUBA. Since the triumph of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, such spigots have been shut.
Since 1959 Cuba still has some of the "World's Best" tourist attractions, such as Varadero Beach. And, of course, Varadero is on Cuba's northern coast just a few miles from Key West, Florida. But the endless six-decade-old Embargo doesn't like Varadero Beach, and so there is nothing Cuba can do about it.
