Have you ever been to Cuba?
I have not.
You have not.
Okay.
Did you get a chance to read the report that came out this week from the State Department on Cuba, 95 pages?
Gotcha.
Can you explain to me, on July 7th, there was a vote in the UN to continue debate about the US blockade of Cuba, and we opposed that, and we kind of had an embarrassing defeat, 136 to nine with 30 abstentions.
But given what this report said,
Why are we afraid to have that debate if there's so much information we want to share with the world about Cuba?
Why did we not extend that debate?
That's a mischaracterization.
It just seems that if we had such damning information that this report claims to have, that would be a great venue to have that.
I guess my question is, it's been over 65 years.
It uses the UN for its propaganda.
That's what we opposed.
Yeah, no, thank you.
It's been over 65 years that we've had essentially this blockade, this embargo on Cuba.
And have we moved closer to a democracy, steer them towards human rights?
Has, as the other ambassador said, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result.
Have that 65 years brought us to where we wanna be?
