Havana is currently hosting the Second Summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), which excludes the USA and Canada. HAVANA – Why did the United States — before Cuba declared itself socialist and aligned itself with the Soviet Union — begin to structure the State Department’s suggestion to impose sanctions on the island to provoke “hunger, despair and the overthrow of the government” of Fidel Castro? Why have the U.S. governments, after the end of the Cold War, continued to perceive Cuba as a threat and continued to apply and even tighten the genocidal blockade, when the small nation — with only 11 million inhabitants and armed forces intended only for the national defense — represents no danger to U.S. national security?
