USA's Top Cuba Expert Explains Chinese Headlines!!

 

     America's greatest expert regarding U. S.-Cuban Relations is William LeoGrande, the Professor at American University in Washington. It is highly significant that Professor LeoGrande has publicly explained in late June of 2023 the dire U. S. and Worldwide Headlines regarding the reality and allegations about China putting Spy Bases and even a Military Base in the USA's backyard in Cuba.

      Regardless of what you have read or heard about the ongoing Cuba-U.S.-China saga, you actually don't know what is happening unless you depend on William LeoGrande explaining it to you, as he does in the vastly important article above. Then below you can see the full explanation from the incomparably insightful William LeoGrande.

     You may have noted that William LeoGrande above pointed out that the U. S. media is not reliable because the once-believed mainstream U. S. media now rely on repeated propaganda sources that desire to promote their extreme Anti-Cuba or Pro-Cuba views, thus regularly "leaking" resultant articles that now routinely create major Top Cuban Stories. Unfortunately the "leaks" -- as William LeoGrande states above -- end up being published by top U. S. media sources such as The NY Times, The Washington Post, Fox News, NBC News, etc., etc.

     For the past three decades, William LeoGrande has been the best source for the most honest and insightful news regarding U.S.-Cuba Relations. And that fact is still true in Late June-2023.

Are Cuba & China New Economic and Military Allies??

   The photo above was taken in Havana by Roberto Suarez, a Cuban who is one of the Caribbean's greatest photographers. The photo chronicles Cuba accurately with schools now closed for the summer on the island and with these children, all consumed with rolling skating as they take a rest break. This photo does not resonate in the news media but it does chronicle Cuba's capital city of Havana in late June of 2023. Meanwhile, the Cuban headlines in the U. S. and international media currently are telling the world that Cuba might soon be the focal point of a clash between the United States and China, the world's two richest and most powerful nations!!

          How, you may ask, is the poor little nation of Cuba and Superpower China tied together in late June of 2023 in worldwide headlines as possibly the catalyst portending what might be World War 3 between the top current nuclear powers, such as history to this day registers the fact that way back in October of 1962 poor little Cuba was the catalyst in what still is the closest the world has ever come to a nuclear holocaust, with that one pitting the United States against the Soviet Union.

\    So now, in late June of 2023, above are the Top Cuba Headlines circling around the world as rich and powerful Counter Revolutionary Cubans in the U. S. seem to have latched onto headlines that finally, after 64+ years later, might portend the end of Revolutionary Cuba. It, of course, doesn't help if citizens of the world study those headlines-articles because, in recent years, even top media sources in the United States have evolved mostly into propaganda providers instead of dispensers of the news that people need, crave, and deserve.

     The Articles/Editorials shown directly above are about the current Cuba-China uproar and the producers are prime media sources such as the Wall Street Journal, the China News, the New York Times, etc., etc. Yet...studying the photos shown below paint better pictures of what is actually taking place.

    China's leader Zi is cozying up to Cuba's leader Diaz-Canel because Cuba, in late June of 2023, is reeling from the six-decade-old U. S. economic Embargo/Blockade of the island nation that is a mere 90 miles south of Key West, Florida. Zi, fiercely competing with the U. S. in the Taiwan Straits, wants all the support he can muster, including that of Diaz-Canel.

     Even before things heated up between China and the United States over Taiwan, Zi and his wife were close friends to Diaz-Canel and his wife. Now, as some headlines suggest that some Cubans are starving in the throes of the U. S. Embargo, the ultra-powerful Zi may feel he needs Cuba's help more than ever, and most Cubans have good feelings about Zi because he has sent rice and other things to Cuba, as well as greatly improving rail service on the Island.

    Also, it should be noted, Zi idolized Cuba's revolutionary icon Fidel Castro. The photo above shows Zi in Fidel's home in Havana shortly before Fidel died at age 90 in 2016.

     The map above shows little Cuba and the world's two most powerful and richest nations, the United States and China. Cuba is just a few miles from the United States and it is many thousands of miles from China. From a geographical standpoint, Cuba would be much better off if the United States, not China, was its best friend. But that is not the way it is.

Will CHINA EXCUSE Finally Doom the Cuban Revolution?

 

     This Victor Toledo photo was taken today -- June 21st-2023 -- and it shows the famed and beautiful Capital Dome Building in Havana, which Revolutionary Cuba has recently amd very beautifully restored to its true ELIGANCE. And this photo today also proves to the world that the Cuban Revolution still rules Cuba -- not the Batistianos, not the Mafia, nor the United States. But in the 64th year of being ruled by The Cuban Revolution, the worldwide Cuban Headlines today -- June 21st-2023 -- are telling the world that the end of Revolutionary Cuba is finally about to occur!!!!!

   Since January 1st of 1959 -- the day the Cuban Revolution shocked the world by defeating the unbeatable trio of Batista-the Mafia-&-the United States -- Counter Revolutionary Cubans in Miami, Newark, and Washington have expected to recapture Cuba "any day now." Incredibly, as of June 21st in 2023 it still hasn't happened!! But...today -- June 21st-2023 -- worldwide headlines, as shown below, are screaming that the rich and ultra-powerful Counter Revolutionary forces -- that failed in the Bay of Pigs air-land-sea military attack in April of 1961, during the Cuban Missile Crisis in October of 1962, etc., etc. -- have finally found the excuse that will doom Revolutionary Cuba AT LONG LAST!!!!

    Above you can see the screaming headlines criss-crossing the world today on June 21-2023. Counter Revolutionaries, 64+ years after the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, firmly believe the headlines above will finally lead to the demise of Revolutionary Cuba.

      This elderly and dying Cuban Rebel -- a guerrilla fighter who helped Fidel Castro win the Cuban Revolution -- has seen all the latest Headlines and Escuses that finally, once and FOR ALL, portend the end of the Cuban Revolution. But the sick old Rebel got up from his bed where his grand-daughter and his doctor both believed he was dying. But he didn't die, at least not until he sat up in a chair and gave a Middle Finger message to all those Headlines on June 21-2023 that are predicting that his beloved Cuban Revolution is finally doomed!!!!!!

Cuba Goes Worldwide to Combat U.S. Media

 

     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 Spanish word "LLEGA" means "To Arrive." When they arrived in Rome today, Cuban President Diaz-Canel and his wife Lis were given a red-carpet arrival.

     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.

3 Foreign Powers Court Cuba, But Not USA!!!

 China, Russia, and Iran!!

    In this month of June in 2023 Cuba's top leaders have been courted in Havana by top delegations from the USA's top three competitors/enemies -- Russia, China, and Iran.

    After receiving important delegations from Russia and China, Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel received a state visit from Ebrahim Raisi, the President of Iran. It appears that those three FOREIGN nations in June of 2023 are courting Cuba to take advantage of their competitive economic or military differences with the United States, the nearby World Superpower that appears to be tightening its six-decade-old economic Embaargo/Blockade against the reeling island nation.

      Meanwhile, today -- June 17-2023 -- Cuba's President Diaz-Canel is 500 miles from Havana in the southeastern Province of Granma, close to the U. S. Military Base at Guantanamo. Diaz-Canel, as shown above today by Cuban newscasts, is doing what he does best, which is walking the streets and explaining Cuba's efforts to juggle its priorities so it can survive such things as the Embargo, its terrible economy, and natural calamities such as this week's latest deadly flood that hit Granma Province.

      The TV caption comment/video above shows President Diaz-Canel telling Cubans in Granma Providence today that he knows how "difficult things are for you citizens, but I want you all to know that your leaders are trying to improve things as best we can." Before becoming President of Cuba in 2018 Diaz-Canel was the island's popular Minister of Education. Most independent observers believe he is still supported by most of Cuba's 11 million people despite the myriad of problems.

      And, YES, today -- June 17th-2023 -- in battered Granma Province, President Diaz-Canel was asked this question by Cubans on the street: "Mr. President, it seems that China, Russia and Iran are all offering to help us during this time of heightened disasters as well as disastrous sanctions from the United States. You said you seek more nornal relations with the United States, but is that possible?"

Starving Cubans In June of 2023

 Is China JustTrying to Help?

Or Is China/Russia EXPLOITING the Dire Situation?

      In mid-June of 2023 headlines in the U. S. and around the world are reporting that Cubans in Cuba are starving due to the vast U. S. Economic EMBARGO-Blockade that began way back in 1962 when its purpose was to starve, deprive, and make miserable Cubans on the island to induce them to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government. Today -- on June 14th-2023 -- above is the Headline and Sub-Headline being flashed around the world after being published today by two prime U. S. media sources -- NBC News and Telemundo News. Of course, while the starvations in Cuba continue unabated, most headlines related to Cuba refer to the fact that Counter Revolutionary factions are stressing something else -- namely that China has a spy base in Cuba that presumably will doom the USA unless the USA...uh...does something about it!!

     The aforementioned NBC News/Telemundo News Headline and Sub-Headline was illustrated by this photo from Adalberto Roque/AFP/Getty Images. The photo above shows Cubans trying to keep from starving by waiting in line to purchase some food being sold or given away from the back of a truck.

    This photo, every bit as important as the two top photos above, was taken in Havana today -- June 14th-2023 -- and it shows a ceremony in which Cuban schoolgirls and their parents/grandparents are being told that they will survive calamities such as the U. S. Embargo, which started in 1962 and since has been maintained or expanded by the Democratic and Republican administrations in the U. S. who apparently benefit from it. Benefit from it? Study the facial expression of the Cuban schoolgirl today who is directly looking into the camera. Then ask yourself two questions: {1} Is she an enemy of the U. S.? and {2} does she, along with her parents and grandparents, deserve to live their lives in the throes of the U. S. Embargo?

    The U. S. Embargo against Cuba has harmed every schoolgirl in Cuba since 1962 while also, in the eyes of most of the world, shames the images of the U. S. and Democracy. But for over six decades it has existed...with no end on the horizon.

    For the record, above are the first three paragraphs of the long article today -- on June 14th-2023 -- that is flashing around the world courtesy of NBC News and Telemundo News. The article informs the world that many Cubans are "fleeing misery and hunger" as they are flocking to the U. S., but what about the 11 million Cubans they leave behind on the island? Yes, the prime question perhaps is who benefits from this situation and WHY is no one ever held accountable for the disastrous Embargo?
