Ms. Hislop, I have a hard time understanding the arguments of some people who, on the one hand, say there's never been such a difficult humanitarian crisis for the people of Cuba, and, on the other hand, that it's the regime's fault, when this crisis…
Don't get me wrong, I'm a defender of human rights. I'm banned in China and Russia. That said, from a completely objective point of view, the crisis we're dealing with, the one hurting people right now, is directly linked to the American blockade, which is mainly related to energy.
Am I wrong? Am I off track?
