Mexico. -
President Barak Obama (04/14/15), it notified to the Congress of their
country his determination of excluding Cuba of the government list of “countries
sponsorship of the terrorism", in what constitutes a decisive step for
the normalization in course of the bilateral relationships. To three days of
their encounter with the Cuban president, Raul Castro, in the context of the
Summits of the carried out America last weekend in the Panamanian capital,
the leader notified to the Capitol that “the government from Cuba has not
provided support to the international terrorism in the last six months and it
has offered guarantees and that it won't support acts of international
terrorism in the future". This way, Obama continues ahead in its
strategic decision of offering the end of the long conflict between its
nation and the Caribbean island, originated by the historical persistence of
Washington of impeding the self-determination of the Cubans.
It is clear that to these heights, when the
political Hawaiian is in the final tract of its second and last government, his
main concern is centered in the general balance that will be made of his
administration, and in this logic it interests him to be distinguished as the
president that put an end to the blockade and the hostility of decades
against Havana, unjustifiable and counteractive even from the perspective of
the American public opinion. It is reasonable to suppose that Obama has
carried out the necessary political moorings to isolate in the Congress to
the reactionary sectors and the most belligerent groups in the Cuban
community in the exile, in order to make viable the repeal of the laws that
they give sustenance to the seizure. However, anything can be given for sure.
The States is to enter in a season of campaigns with an eye toward the
elections of ends of next year and the generality of the decisions and the
voting in the Capitol it is subject to the electoral calculations. In any
way, the White House has fulfilled its promise of impelling the over coming
of the conflict with Cuba and the normalization of the bilateral
relationship, and now the ball is in the field of game of the
Legislative.
Symbol of the fight against the blockade: Mexico
Mexico has been criticized “wrongly” by not
having had a bigger participation of the recent events that they derived in
the approach between Cuba and The States, but “Mexico represents, of
transparent way, the long fight and reiterated condemnation that it forced The
States to think again its politics before the growing isolation in the
region. Mexico symbolizes this position like any other country, it didn't
break relationships, it maintained the trade with Cuba and it used all
tribune it had within its reach to demand the rising", the ambassador
from Cuba assured in Mexico, Dagoberto Rodriguez Barrera. It also sustained
that their country doesn't base its aspirations of growth on the regularization
of its relationships with United States, “even distant and uncertain",
but in the bring up to date of the economic and social pattern directed to create
a more efficient economy, with indexes of growth above 5 percent to generate
a sustainable and prosperous socialism.
The Cuban diplomat highlighted that, after
more than 50 years of using all the possible tools, as the terrorism of
State, military invasion or the Cuban government's demonization, “finally the
Goliath recognized that it has failed in its objective of changing to Cuba to
achieve its objectives. David has been able to survive without making
concessions of principles, without changes in its politics for strange
demands and it made them with resistance, stability and coherence", he
asserted. The chancellor insisted in that the possibility to reestablish the relationship
depends exclusively of a unilateral decision of The States. "To lift the
economic and financial blockade, to return the territory occupied in the
Guantanamo Bay and ceasing of their politics of internal subversion to try to
change the régime, those they are decisions
that it feeds to take president Obama and that Cuba stops they are not
negotiable and if indispensable to advance in that long road and paved toward
the normalization of the bilateral relationships", it pointed. It also recognized that there are other
obstacles in that way, we are not as perfect as some friends they want to see
us, but neither as bad as some other ones they paint us. There are
prejudices, dogmas that adulterate the reality because at Cuba is looked with
a different glass magnifying."
Honest man
In these years it is no longer common to
refer to the encounter between the American president and Raul Castro it is a
historical landmark and certainly it has consequences for the American
Continent, since it changes the nature of the relationships between all Latin
America and the Colossus of the North, giving him a bigger clarity, and it helps
to toss the last earth shovel to the cold war and the rude rhetoric that it
accompanies her. Apparently with this encounter they will have to go two
ghosts to secret graves: the anti-imperialism and the anticommunism. In this context of change the shades that
will try to shake the hate are the radical right in The States like the Tea
Party and the supposed leaders of the socialism of the XXI century that
perhaps take out political interests. The Cuban president gave him “honest
man's qualification", since she didn't find president Obama's appropriate
complement, and you finished saying: "Our nations should be liberated of
the old arguments, we should share the responsibility of the future. This
change is an inflection point for the whole region."
This approach given by an American
president doesn't have precedent some but so that it is irreversible it is
necessary to take the steps foreseen immediately, like it is the one that The
States puts to Cuba outside of the list of terrorist countries, and that the
diplomatic relationships settle down working fully. This situation would open
the door so that the restrictions of the economic blockade continue being
unloaded, and the successor of Obama is in the sustainable situation of
continuing ahead without return, and this seeing in perspective to the most
radical republican lines. It is very well-known that in fact the fundamental
concession of the blockade is in the legislative's hands in Washington, and
Cuba knows it for that reason Castro has insisted on repeating that it is
necessary to have a lot of patience.
If we agree of what happens in the Capitol
and it is wanted that they are repealed the legal foundations of the blockade
there against Cuba, and beyond that happened historically, it is impaction the
cynicism of the language official American employee to elaborate clever of
presumed impeller governments of the terrorism international, had bear in
mind that, for tradition, it has been the own Washington the main promoter of
actions terrorists in the world in general -there the American military
exercises are had in the world - and in Cuba in particular. None of the
attacks perpetrated in the last decades in American territory has had back of
the Havana, as long as in the island the terrorist attacks sponsored by
government instances of the superpower are counted by dozens, included much
intent to murder the Cuban leaders, organized and financed by the Central Intelligence
of Agency. With such antecedents, if a government would deserve to be
described as promoter of the terrorism he would be the culprit of this
situation and that we will call The States, and it is comprehensible, for it,
president Obama's reticence to listen historical references during the last
Summit of the America. (La Jornada, politica, p.p. 4-19, April 15, 2015).
