Across the United States and around the world, supporters of
Cuba's independence will take to the streets tomorrow to demand an end
to U.S. regime change plots against the country. Cuba, whose
healthcare system and international solidarity has been an inspiration
to the whole world during the pandemic, is facing stepped up
aggression by the CIA and other arms of U.S. Empire. The ANSWER
Coalition is calling on people to show their support for the right of
Cuba to retain its sovereignty and freedom from imperialist efforts to
overthrow the government. Sixteen actions have already been announced,
and more are coming in every day -- check here for updates.
Donald Trump imposed 243 additional coercive measures aimed at
tightening the U.S. economic blockade against Cuba. Increased economic
suffering for ordinary Cubans is the consequence of this policy.
President Biden has not lifted even one of the additional sanctions
imposed by Trump. Instead of treating Cuba as a neighbor and resuming
the process towards normalization between U.S. and Cuba, the Biden
White House is working overtime to promote a counterrevolution inside
of Cuba.
The State Department, the CIA, the National Endowment for Democracy
(NED) and other U.S. agencies are working to organize anti-government
protests in Cuba on Monday, November 15. The organizers of the
November 15 demonstrators are the same players who led violent attacks
on people and public facilities on July 11. One such person, Yunior
García Aguilera, has been exposed in recent weeks as having direct
links with notorious Miami-based terrorist Ramón Saúl Sánchez, and CIA
plots to try to create conflict within Cuba.
The U.S. blockade against Cuba must be ended. Cuba has led
the way in providing free healthcare for its own citizens and poor
people around the world. The U.S. has been at war against this
revolution ever since it succeeded in toppling the U.S. backed
dictatorship of Batista in 1959. What the U.S. fears is that if Cuba
is allowed to live free from outside interference, it will be an
example for the rest of Latin America that has suffered for centuries
under the boot of colonialism and imperialism.
