Tristemente aún cuando se agradecen las muestras de solidaridad de los amigos de Cuba, en realidad casi nadie (para no ser absolutos) se atreve a desobedecer a EUA, y no protege de las leyes extraterritoliales del bloqueo a sus empresas, por más palabras de apoyo que den. Lo otro es que con el valor de las ayudas, que vuelvo y repito se agradece y es un respiro para el pueblo cubano, la mejor manera de...
