HAVANA TIMES — I’ve been reading and re-reading everything that is happening with the US and Cuba again. It seems like these are poorly-told stories and bad jokes. What are we doing? And I say “we” because at the end of the day, we don’t know who’s doing what.
Some people blame people here and other people blame people there on whether this person or that person started it first. About whether there’s an investigation or something else… but… has anybody really thought about the thousands of families who will now lose all contact, the victims? On this side and there too?
What will happen to parents there who are waiting for their children? What will happen to the children who are waiting for their parents? And to those people who visit each other regularly?
What will happen to the people who had their immigration interviews set during the next couple of months? Will they have to lose all hope, even though the popular saying says that hope is the last thing that we lose?
What will happen to a country which seems to be more open to the world on a daily basis, but in reality is becoming more closed off? The iron bars that surround us are becoming more and more narrow… and we are becoming more and more isolated every day.
Yep, this is an old and poorly-told story. I don’t care who is to blame, what I am 100% sure about though is that none of the people being directly affected by this, on both sides, are to blame.
Will this never end?
The Cuban government accuses the independent media "El Toque" of influencing more than its economic…
Ortega and Murillo were never able to scare Rolando Alvarez into silence or get him…
The Alhucema Solidarity Initiatives Association based in Seville, Spain also sends medical supplies to Cuba.
