Cuba is a NET IMPORTER and is experiencing SHORTAGES of FOOD, OIL & BLACKOUTS. The situation is now EXTREMELY SERIOUS for CUBA and this has resulted in the biggest EXODUS of People since the start of Communism in the early 1960's. Russia is currently looking to establish new global relations and following a recent Forum in Havana it has been announced that Russia will be recommencing its close relationship with Cuba through the supply of Oil, Wheat and Investment.

This is good news. Cuba needs help just to feed people. We could also make some humanitarian gestures. I hate to see the Cold War revived. We are not living in the 1950s and it’s time for an attitude adjustment. My opinion will not be popular here. I am just looking at this from an humanitarian viewpoint. We do not look good to the Global South on this issue.

Restore full diplomatic relations, trade, and tourism.

End the Cuban expats deciding U.S. policy on Cuba.
