Cuban President at the UN Today

 

     The image above shows Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel speaking today -- Sept. 23rd-2021 -- at the United Nations in New York, USA. His theme was: "Cuba defends its right to live in peace." With emphasis, President Diaz-Canel denounced the U. S. blockade of the island nation, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    As the UN reported above on April 30th, 2020, for the 29th consecutive year the United Nations "urgently" begged the United States to "lift its blockade on Cuba to save lives amid the expanding COVID-19 crisis." But for the past 29 years...including back on April 30, 2020 as shown above...the United States continues to mock the world's condemnation of the Blockade, which prior to the UN notice above, only two nations in the whole world -- the USA and Israel -- voted to continue the Blockade during the Pandemic.
     Since 1962 the U. S. CUBAN EMBARGO has been designed and legalized to starve Revolutionary Cuba while, of course, enriching and empowering selected U. S. Cuban-American Counter Revolutionaries. Democratic-lovers around the world are appalled and embarrassed about the above images of the United States, but Americans...for over six decades...have been programmed not to be embarassed!!!!
    In regards to the international Carlos LaTuff editorial about the U. S. Embargo of Cuba during the COVID-19 pandemic, below is one of Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel's quotations today at the United Nations in NY:

Cuban COVID Update on Sept. 22-2021

 

           Today -- September 22nd, 2021 -- Cuba's Dr. Francisco Duran reported 59 COVID-19 deaths in the past 24 hours, along with 7,151 new cases. He said, "These numbers are sad but trending sharply downward as the massive vaccination program progresses across the island." As shown by the TV caption above, Dr. Duran also revealed that the new cases "have been 53.3% in the female population and 46.7% in the male population."
     The graphic above on Sept. 22nd, 2021 reveals the number of new COVID-19 cases in the past 24 hours in the western Cuban provinces. Most new cases, 1494, are in Pinar Del Rio and there are 485 new cases today in Havana.
    In the central Cuban provinces today the most new COVID-19 cases, 832, are in Sancti Spiritus province with Camaguey second with 757 new cases.
      And today -- September 22nd, 2021 -- in the eastern Cuban provinces the most new COVID-19 cases are in Holguin province with 771 while the province of Granma is second with a total of 474 new cases.

Cuba Targeted 1492 till 2021

 Its Location & Beauty are the Lures!!

    Today -- September 21, 2021 -- Cuba reported 63 more fallecidos, deaths, from COVID-19 but it is lower than recent statistics since the island began a comprehensive vaccination program for its citizens, including children as young as two.
    Cuban mothers today in Cuba were happy to see their little girls, like this one, get vaccinated.
   The nation of Vietnam has purchased Cuba's Abdala COVID-19 Vaccine and also will be allowed to produce the vaccine in Vietnam. So, in late September of 2021 Cuba continues to navigate around two massive perils -- the Pandemic and the Blockade!!

     As you can see above, poor little Cuba has been in a precarious situation since September of 1492 until September of 2021 because all imperial priorities by larger and richer nations -- especially Spain and the United States -- have been obsessed with owning the Caribbean's largest and most beautiful island. Take particular notice of Cuba's titillating location in which geography places it right below the USA's state of Florida. The 1898 Spanish-American War ended with the USA, the burgeoning world Superpower, replacing Spain as the dominant factor in Cuba...at least till January of 1959 when the Cuban Revolution shocked the world by defeating the Batista dictatorship that had been supported by the USA, the world's strongest nation, and by the Mafia, the world's strongest criminal organization. Yet, truth be known, Cuba's GREATEST REVOLUTIONARY FEAT HAS BEEN SURVIVING THE EFFORTS OF FLORIDA AND THE USA TO REGAIN CONTROL OF CUBA since 1959. So, in late September in 2021 the ongoing and ever-expanding threats from Cuba's northern neighbor, even during a deadly pandemic, remain poor little Cuba's primary problem.
    Last week the CELAC 2021 Summit -- comprised of the 32 Caribbean and Latin American Community nations -- was held in Mexico City and Mexico's President Lopez Obrador spotlighted Cuba's President Diaz-Canel as his prime guest and prime speaker, highlighting Obrador's herculean efforts to end the U. S. Blockade of Cuba.
     On the heels of CELAC 2021 in Mexico City, the airplane shown above landed in Havana carrying the President/Prime Minister of Vietnam and a very large delegation of Vietnamese economic and government officials.
      Since April of 2021 Nguyen Xuan Phuc has been both the President and Prime Minister of Vietnam. Since defeating the U. S. in the Vietnam War, Communist Vietnam has been a friend and trading partner of the U. S., with President George W. Bush being the first U. S. President to go to Ho Chi Minh City, the former Saigon, to bang the loud circular gavel and celebrate Vietnam's booming economy. Now...in late September of 2021...President Xuan Phuc's flight to Cuba is highly significant.
   Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel graciously has welcomed Vietnam's President Nguyet Xuan Phuc in Havana this week.
     On Cuban television today the graphic above shows President Diaz-Canel hosting President Xuan Phuc at a business session in Havana. The caption above points out that Vietnam has already been by far the most important investor in Cuba's vital Economic Zone built around the Muriel Port, which is the best deep-water port in the region able to handle the biggest ships that pass through the Panama Canal. Vietnam and many other nations believe that Cuba's Muriel Port would be the most valuable port in the region were it not for the U. S. blockade of Cuba!! So, that is why Cuban TV said today that "VIETNAM IMPORTANTE INVERSOR EN ZONA DE DESARROLLO EN CUBA" at the Economic Zone surrounding the deep-water Cuban port at Muriel, which is about 30 miles southwest of Havana. At the session above today, President Xuan Phuc said, "Vietnam is much happy with its investments at Mariel and we plan to increase our investments greatly."
   The new airplane/airline above is owned by the Madrid-based Iberostar Hotels & Resorts chain that owns 18 luxury 4-star & 5-star businesses in Cuba. The photo above is from an Iberostar ad that confirms it will begin a new stream of flights to Cuba.
    This ad today by Iberostar Cuba Hotels & Resorts reminds tourists that they are ready "To Sea You Again." It means that the Spanish Hotel-Resort giant is reminding the world that Cuba has the best beaches in the world, such as Veradero and Cayo Santa Maria.
     Directly south below Florida, the beach off Cuba's north-central coast -- CAYO SANTA MARIA -- is currently rated as the "Second Best Beach in the Whole World" by TripAdvisor.
    The Iberostar ad campaign currently is focusing on reminders that "As winter 2021-2022 awaits tourists, Cuba's beaches and hospitality beckons everyone."
Two of Cuba's world-class beaches!!!!
    And by the way, today...on September 21, 2021...Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel posted this interesting paragraph on his Twitter page.

Is Batistiano Recapture of Cuba Imminent??

 As the U. S. Media Predicts!!

    At last week's CELAC Summit of the 32 Caribbean and Latin American nations hosted by Mexico's President Lopez Obrador, Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel was spotlighted as was the denunciation of the U. S. Embargo/Blockade of Cuba. Yet, as reported by the mainstream U. S. media...as well as by the daily LET'S RECAPTURE CUBA NOW!!! zealots such as Ciber Cuba News, 14ymedio, Babalu, Miami's Radio-TV Marti, etc., etc., etc...the vicious anti-Cuban propaganda, as usual, prevailed as a continuing and endless affliction of the United States people.
     At the Celac Summit in Mexico City the President of Uruguay read an extremely long and vicious denunciation of Cuba and Venezuela. And that was headlined by the LET'S RECAPTURE CUBA NOW!! U. S. media. In fact, the endless harangue was so vicious and biased that Cuba's primetime national Television Newscast, as shown above, showed it and rebroadcast it. But, unlike the U. S. media, Cuban newscasts also showed the response to the Uruguay tirade against Cuba by Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel.
     After Uruguay tried to hog the Celac Summit with its extremely long tirade against Cuba, Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel succinctly delivered Cuba's reaction, which included how countries are rewarded lavishly with U. S. dollars if they try to starve and overthrow Revolutionary Cuba: "Uruguay is a South American nation of about 3.5 million people. For its anger against Cuba, it can obviously expect a heaping of U. S. dollars. So the Uruguayan president didn't need to spend a half-hour of our time to deliver his speech that we can assume was written by or at least cleared word-by-word by the rich and most vehement pro-Batista/anti-Cuban people in Washington such as money-king Mauricio Claver-Carone, Senators Rubio and Menendez, the Diaz-Balart brothers who have decades-long holds on the U. S. Congress just as their father before the Revolution had a hold on Batista's parliament in Cuba. As long as huge fortunes and political powerbases in the United States can continue to be built by promoting the Batista dictatorship while vilifying Cuba's necessary Revolution, we will continue see that money from the richest nation in the world flowing freely to dissidents in Cuba as well as to small nations willing to support and sell-out to the Counter Revolutionary Cubans that rule places in Florida, New Jersey, and now in Washington itself."
   Of course, like most nations in the Caribbean and Latin America, Mexico refuses to sell-out to the U. S. vilification of Cuba. That's why throughout the Celac Summit in Mexico City, President Lopez Obrador stood beside and saluted President Diaz-Canel on behalf of the Cuban people who are being unmercifully assaulted by the Blockade and COVID-19.
     Therefore today -- on September 20th, 2021 -- Americans are, as usual, being bombarded by headlines such as the ones shown above. Along with well-funded entitles such as Radio-TV Marti in Miami and the U. S. Senate's beloved 14ymedio in Havana, mainstream U. S. media sources such as the Miami Herald bombard Americans with stupid headlines such as: "MEXICO ROLLED OUT THE RED CARPET FOR CUBA'S DICTATOR, BUT IS UNLIKELY TO LEAD A LEFTIST BLOC." WOW!! Such ignorant and daily floods of propaganda supporting the brutal Mafia-riddled Batista dictatorship from the 1950s is daily fare by the likes of the Miami Herald, which lauds Batista as the antipathy to Revolutionary Cuba's current rule. Six+ decades of such propaganda have helped Little Havana in Miami capture much of the USA but recapturing Havana remains, it seems, somewhat of a work in progress!!

Mexico Gives Cuba A GREAT Week

 Well Deserved, Well Appreciated!!

        Born on April 20th, 1960 -- after the Jan. 1-1959 triumph of the Cuban Revolution -- Miguel Diaz-Canel -- has been the President of Revolutionary Cuba since 2018 and in 2021 his leadership of Cuba was further expanded when he was also named Secretary. Contrary to what the U. S. media and the U. S. government say, Diaz-Canel is very popular with a strong majority of everyday Cubans and that has been so since he spent five years as Cuba's Education Minister.
       But this week in mid-September of 2021 has been the best and most prestigious week that Diaz-Canel has had both in Cuba, in the region, and around the world. That is because of the crucial support Diaz-Canel is receiving from his dear friend Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the influential President of Mexico!!! Back in July in a blistering speech that was streamed live on international television and on the internet, Lopez Obrador excoriated the U. S. blockade of Cuba and called it "inhumane" against Cuban families on the island, especially during the pandemic. And back on Thursday of this week as Mexico lavishly celebrated its greatest holiday that marked the 211th anniversary of its Independence Day, Lopez Obrador make sure that Cuba's Diaz-Canel was indelibly spotlighted as the prime guest and prime speaker during the Independence Day extravaganzas. While praising Diaz-Canel profoundly, Lopez Obrador purposely embarrassed Ken Salazar, the U. S. ambassador to Mexico, by repeating words such as: "No nation has a right to commit genocide against people in another nation, a nation that is much smaller."
     For two days this week Diaz-Canel and Lopez Obrador spent a lot of time in private conversations.
     In fact this week, President Lopez Obrador and his wife/First Lady Beatriz Gutierrez spent a lot of time with President Diaz-Canel and his wife/First Lady Lis Cuesta Peraza. {Above Lis is beside Lopez Obrador and Beatriz is beside Diaz-Canel}.
      And this weekend President Lopez Obrador of Mexico hosted the CELAC Conference that is comprised of 32 Caribbean and Latin American nations. And ONCE AGAIN President Lopez Obrador made sure to excoriate the U. S. for its blockade of Cuban families. The international media particularly quoted Lopez Obrador for saying, "No state has the right to subjugate masses of people in another state, another country, and the U. S. has tried to subjugate Cuba decade-after-decade with a perverse and inhumane embargo that it has enlarged to an even crueler blockade during the pandemic."
    As the host this weekend of the 32-nation CELAC Conference, Mexico's President Lopez Obrador pointed out that the OAC -- The Organization of American States -- is a tool of the United States, as are the international banks, and thus they "support U.S.-led genocide against Cuban families during the pandemic. Thus, Caribbean and Latin American nations not selling out to the U. S. must show compassion for Cuban families on their island. Selling national sovereignty to a superpower is appealing, I guess, but there should be limits."
     On Thursday when Mexico celebrated its 211 Years of Independence, the major speaker and guest was Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel.
    At this weekend's meeting of the 32 Caribbean and Latin American states, Miguel Diaz-Canel again was the major speaker in Mexico City, making sure that Cuba's views on the U. S. blockade were aired.
     At the CELAC meeting Mexican President Lopez Obrador denounced Europe for allowing the U. S. blockade of Cuba "to exist."
    At the CELAC meeting this weekend Nicolas Maduro, the President of Venezuela, said, "I was supposed to be replaced by the hand-picked President owned by Miami Cubans and the U. S. government. But the President of Bolivia was chased out of his country by a coup by the Miami Cubans and the U. S. government but the lady they picked as Bolivia's President has now been put in prison by the Bolivian people and charged with murder on behalf of the victims killed by the coup, so Bolivia is again Cuba's friend. President Ortega of Nicaragua, who had a Fidel-like revolution to beat the U.S.-armed rebels, is still in office but facing the same threats from the Miami Cubans and the U. S. that I am and other friends of Cuba are facing. So, President Lopez Obrador, I suppose you are a threat to the Miami Cubans and the U. S. now that you want to save Cuban families from genocide."
       So for sure, it has been a big and prestigious week for Cuba and its President Miguel Diaz-Canel, thanks to the spotlight that Mexico's President Lopez Obrador has placed on Cuba, Cuba's President, and the U. S. Blockade of the island. Lopez Obrador back in July had begun his blistering campaign to powerfully denounce the U. S. blockade of Cuba but this week he used both Independence Day in Mexico as well as the 32-nation CELAC Conference to drive home his belief that the U. S. Blockade of Cuban families should be ended once and fall!!!
    In this memorable week for Cuban families on the island, Mexico's President Lopez Obrador said, "Back in 1996 the rich Miami Cubans legalized the Helms-Burton Act that still in 2021 that the U. S. Congress is prohibited to erase even though it is a blueprint to commit genocide against Cubans in Cuba while it also serves as a blueprint for making the already rich U. S. Cubans richer and richer. Somewhere and someday all those riches must be viewed in their proper perspectives, which acknowledges the genocide Cubans in their sovereign country must endure to endlessly enrich Cubans in the U. S. along with their political supporters."
Thank You,
Mr. President!!!
