On his trip to Cuba, President Carter has said things that we do not like many Cubans. He has also made statements that we agree. His meeting with a group of dissidents is important to them, for us and for the struggle for democracy.
Carter said:
"Most Cubans want there are normal relations with the United States, and the vast majority of Americans also want normal relations with Cuba there "...
We join with that majority. There can be only normal relations between two democracies. In a world where human rights are an important part of relations between nations, a democratic government can not but condemn the violations by a dictatorship. All tyranny by definition are violations of those rights.
Carter also said:
"Undoubtedly there are some radical leaders in my country, some in prominent positions in Congress, in many cases, Cuban Americans, who insist on maintaining this distance ... "
--- It's" a small minority at the moment, but very powerful since political terms, in political circles. "
It seems important that many people in Cuba have heard of President Carter that the U.S. policy toward Cuba is not determined only Americans, but that influence - decisively - a group of Cubans. Whether they represent a minority of Cuban Americans to be proved. A Cuban-American congressmen not Washington elected to Congress in a minority but a majority of voters.
In Cuba, Carter spoke out against the embargo in favor of freedom of the Castro spies convicted in the United States and U.S. tourist travel to Cuba. That's what the regime wanted to hear and maybe even Carter is created. Should assess whether or not the Carter administration used, or it's used to them.
President Carter is no fool as many believe. Nobody goes through the presidency of the United States without graduating in several specialties, including on the evils of dictators and their handling capacity.
would have liked Carter's visit to Cuba was all for us, the freedom, but that's not possible that Carter does not make an ally of Castro, or our enemy. I think we won over us with his visit to the Castro regime, which is difficult to gain and nothing to anyone.
most important thing was that Carter met with several dissidents. That is a recognition that elevates the credibility of the democratic opposition to the Cuban people and the world and has, at times that the dictatorship has launched a vicious and violent campaign against the opposition.
It might be appropriate now ask: Who was before Carter, the last important representative of the free world who went to Cuba and met with the opposition? What was in Havana that he hoped the Cuban people were completely free? Carter did both. Sometimes we have the skill to turn a victory in failure, or give the enemy successes that are not such.
