  15. Estados Unidos sanciona a Díaz-Canel y su círculo cercano

    Estados Unidos impone sanciones financieras al presidente de Cuba y a un hijo de Raúl Castro


    SN Redacción | EFE

    Washington.- El Departamento del Tesoro de Estados Unidos impuso este jueves sanciones financieras al presidente de Cuba, Miguel Díaz‑Canel, a varios de sus familiares y al coronel Alejandro Castro Espín, hijo del exmandatario Raúl Castro.

    El Tesoro incluyó en la lista de sanciones de la Oficina de Control de Activos Extranjeros (OFAC) a Lis Cuesta Peraza, esposa de Díaz‑Canel, y a Manuel Anido Cuesta, hijastro del presidente, que reside en Madrid.

    También sancionó a Raúl Alejandro Castro Calis, nieto de Raúl Castro e hijo de Alejandro Castro Espín.

    La Administración de Donald Trump impuso además sanciones al Ministerio de las Fuerzas Armadas de Cuba y a los Comités de Defensa de la Revolución (CDR), una red de comités de barrio creada para articular el apoyo popular a la revolución comunista.

    El listado de entidades sancionadas se completa con el Instituto Cubano de Amistad con los Pueblos, la minera La Victoria y la agencia de viajes Amistur.

    Las sanciones implican la prohibición de realizar transacciones financieras y comerciales con las personas y entidades designadas, cuyos activos bajo jurisdicción estadounidense quedan bloqueados.

    Díaz-Canel rechaza las nuevas sanciones

    Por su parte, el presidente Díaz-Canel denunció la última «lista ilegítima de sanciones» en la que EE.UU. incluyó a dirigentes, organizaciones y empresas cubanas.

    El mandatario cubano calificó de «amenazadoras» las recientes declaraciones del presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, sobre Cuba.

    «El presidente de EE.UU hace nuevas declaraciones amenazadoras contra Cuba; y el Departamento del Tesoro incorporó nuevos nombres de dirigentes, organizaciones y empresas cubanas a una lista ilegítima de sanciones», escribió el mandatario cubano en las redes sociales.

    Asimismo afirmó que las sanciones de Washington a la isla «están dirigidas a reforzar las medidas de bloqueo y el escenario de conflicto entre Cuba y Estados Unidos».

    «Esta ceguera política se añade a las medidas coercitivas aplicadas en las últimas semanas contra nuestro país, diseñadas para dañar al pueblo cubano», añadió.

    Antes de dicha declaración , el canciller cubano, Bruno Rodríguez, también aseguró en redes sociales que la «vil inclusión» de Díaz-Canel, parte de su familia y otras personas e instituciones cubanas en la lista de sancionados es «la última muestra del plan intervencionista estadounidense» para presentar a La Habana «como una amenaza a la seguridad nacional de los Estados Unidos».

    «Cada acción estadounidense dirigida a construir un escenario de conflicto entre los dos países estará destinada al fracaso. Cada amenaza contra la independencia y soberanía de Cuba tendrá como respuesta más unidad y determinación de nuestro pueblo», concluyó el ministro.

    La nueva ronda de presiones de Estados Unidos

    Esta ronda de sanciones forma parte de la estrategia de presión que el Gobierno de Trump ejerce sobre Cuba para forzar cambios económicos y políticos en la isla.

    Desde la captura de Nicolás Maduro en enero, en un ataque militar estadounidense en Venezuela, Trump ha impuesto un bloqueo petrolero a Cuba que ha agravado su crisis económica y ha amenazado en varias ocasiones con «tomar el control» de la isla.

    El Departamento de Justicia presentó además el mes pasado una acusación contra Raúl Castro, expresidente y hermano menor de Fidel Castro, por su presunta responsabilidad en el derribo, en 1996, de dos avionetas de una organización del exilio cubano que causó la muerte de cuatro personas.

    En este contexto, Washington y La Habana han mantenido negociaciones discretas en las que Raúl Guillermo Rodríguez Castro, uno de los nietos de Raúl Castro, conocido como «El Cangrejo», habría ejercido como uno de los interlocutores cubanos.

    El Gobierno de Cuba insiste en que cualquier cambio en el país debe ser decidido por el pueblo cubano y denuncia que Estados Unidos prepara una agresión militar contra la isla. –sn–

  23. Video - Why is the #US Indicting Raúl Castro 30 Years After the Fact?

    [a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    The Justice Department has indicted #RaúlCastro for something that occurred three decades ago — and the Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche says he’s not sure why.

    The reason the #Trump administration is targeting Castro 30 years after the shooting down of the #BrothersToTheRescue planes has little to do with the pursuit of justice and everything to do with the pursuit of regime change in Cuba.

  28. Video - Why Only Miami Celebrates Cuba’s “Independence Day”

    [a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    May 20 is celebrated in Miami as Cuba’s “Independence Day.” In Cuba, people don’t care about the date because it wasn’t really about Cuban independence. It was about #US control over Cuba.

    On May 20, 1902, a four-year US military occupation ended and Cuba officially became a republic. But Cuba was still controlled by the United States. For example, Cuba’s Constitution allowed the US to invade militarily whenever it wanted. It’s no surprise then that the #Trump administration chose May 20 to announce an indictment against Cuba’s former President #RaúlCastro, which could be used as a pretext to try to take control of Cuba, just as it did more than a century ago.
