Chanting "freedom" and calling for President Miguel Diaz-Canel to step down, thousands of Cubans joined street protests from Havana to Santiago on Sunday in the biggest anti-government demonstrations on the Communist-run island in decades.
I can agree with that. In such circumstances, how do you minimize foreign intervention influence while simultaneously avoiding repressing discussion of domestic grievances?
There could be legitimate grievances among the people for sure. Food, medical, and power shortages are all real (and the fault of the US blockade), but these protests have gone far beyond that in the imperial core. Almost 350k people have signed a petition demanding US military intervention for “humanitarian” reasons. To voice support for these protests is to enable and encourage those who seek Cuban blood.
