Biden's back and forth on the Americas Summit facilitated a late Castro show

Havana takes advantage of any gap between the Democrats to set up an anti-imperialist titingó.

The Biden administration's hesitations regarding Cuba's presence at the Summit of the Americas made it easier for late Castroism to put together its anti-imperialist show; presenting himself as a victim, with his old litany of a besieged square, which will continue in the coming days and weeks.

The deterioration of freedoms in Cuba and the exponential growth of poverty and inequality requires democracies to avoid sending the wrong messages to the wrong people, as warned by theSenator Bob Menendez, following the announcement of a partial softening of sanctions on the Castro government.

But Biden seems trapped between the sinister reality of the island and the pressures of sectors that contributed to his electoral victory; when the most sensible thing would have been to say from minute zero that Cuba would not be there because it suffers from a 63-year tyranny and that there would also be no visas for foragers of dollars disguised as academics and other aromatic herbs that not even goats will eat.

The presence ofColonel Abel Gonzalez Santamaria as a LASA panelist, confirmed the true intentions of late Castroism and Washington knows that there has been no civil society in Cuba since 1968; when Fidel Castro swept away small private property and embarked on free-hand Sovietization, with disastrous consequences for freedom and thought.

The majority feeling of Cubans opposed to Castroism is that the United States announced a partial thaw, at the worst moment of the dictatorship, as demonstrated by its macro and microeconomic figures and its repressive passion, as an antidote to the fear of being swept away by a popular insurrection like the of 11J.

But the damage is already done; although there will be no shortage of soapers with gringo backs who continue to bet that the olive green crocodile will become a vegetarian and will attend every Sunday mass to sing the Hail Mary and make peace with exegetes, opportunists and worms.

The mistake of announcing twelve relief measures for the oldest dictatorship in the West has been followed by a useless, unnecessary and favorable back and forth of the titingó that we will see in the next few hours in Los Angeles, as President Miguel Díaz-Canel warned, boasting that he would not go to Los Angeles under any circumstances, when heI was dying to hesitate in the yuma, and began to cheer on opportunists like López Obrador and the president of Honduras, who must have cried out loud when she saw that her pro-Castro folly could lead her to be left without part of the $3.2 billion pie, announced by the vice president.Kamala Harris for Central America.

Castroism responded to James Carter with Mariel; to Bill Clinton with the downing of the Brothers to the Rescue planes and the rafters, to Barack Obama with the sonic attacks and to Joe Biden with the current migratory avalanche and the refusal to accept returns of excludables and emigrants; while Donald Trump - who invited Cuba to the summit - didn't even cough; fearing an attack that would wipe them out; to the joy of the majority of the Cuban people.

Cubans need a clear and defined North American and European foreign policy more than ever; without ceasing to take responsibility for their own destiny, as long as doubts, absurd evaluations and erroneous messages persist to the olive-green and enguayaberada caste; Havana will take advantage of the spaces for anti-imperialist stands; as if the Cubans did not know that the culprits of their sixty-year-old misfortune are a small group of incapable people, protected by colonels and first colonels under the command of nauseating generals and doctors.
