Cubans react to the dismissal of the first secretary of the Party in Havana: "A lot of change and zero progress"

The dismissal of Luis Antonio Torres Iríbar as first secretary of the Communist Party in Havana has provoked a wave ofcomments on social networks, reflecting the varied perspectives of Cubans. The phrase "A lot of change and zero progress", by Frank Gonzalez, encapsulates the feeling of frustration at the continuous rotation of leadership without tangible progress for the island.

Rafael Duenas criticized the cycle of changes without real effects, pointing to Iríbar as one of the least popular leaders, while Ricardo Ramirez expressed his relief at the dismissal of someone he described as arrogant. This climate of opinion highlights a demand for significant changes beyond mere modifications of figures.

The dialogue was expanded with the debate generated around Ricardo Lopez Losada's comment, "What did he do???", and the response of Susana Torres Rodríguez, who questioned what Iríbar did not do, pointing to inaction as a characteristic of its management. This exchange highlighted widespread skepticism about the effectiveness of political leaders in Cuba.

"He didn't even get the garbage picked up," commented Iris Doural Romero, highlighting the lack of improvements in basic services during Iríbar's management, a common concern among Havana residents who see little impact on their quality of life despite leadership changes.

"Another vermin who gained weight by stealing the people's food and now to clean himself up, the government will assign him another mission where he can continue stealing other supplies," said Joel Quesada, reflecting the perception of corruption and disillusionment with the cycle of reassignments and lack of surrender. of counts.

"Another one will come and live well just like this one who was removed," said Ana Lorenzo, underlining the cynical expectation that any new leader will continue to benefit from the system without making significant changes for the well-being of Cubans.

"That's good news but everything remains the same," said Juan Alberto Rodríguez Fuentes, a comment that sums up the feeling that, although the dismissal may be seen as positive, the structure and fundamental problems remain unchanged.

"Who will be next? Don't miss the next chapters of 'The Next Blow Up,'" joked Obione Kenan, using humor to comment on the seeming inevitability of leadership changes with no real impact, which many see as a series of predictable movements without concrete results for the people.

This panorama of reactions puts into perspective the complexity of Cuban politics, where the desire for substantial improvements faces skepticism over previous unsuccessful changes. The comments not only reflect the discontent and hope of the population, but also underline the demand for effective and transparent government management.
