Cuban Catholics Criticize Opposition Letter

HAVANA TIMES, Aug. 24 — The Cuban Espacio Laical magazine, published by the lay Catholic community, rejected a letter sent to Pope Benedict XVI by representatives of the island’s political opposition, which it considered part of an international campaign to torpedo the Catholic Church’s mediation regarding the political prisoners.

According to the text, the letter “responds to the policy of hatred, which distorts the country’s domestic reality by presenting it as a binary scenario of good and bad persons, eclipsing the required nuances needed to describe, with a minimum of seriousness, the complex social and political processes currently taking place in Cuban society.,” reported IPS.
