Cuba News and Information

President Bush said Thursday he will lift key trade sanctions against North Korea and remove it from the U.S. terrorism blacklist, a remarkable turnaround in policy toward the communist regime that Bush once branded as part of an “axis of evil.”
The announcement came after North Korea handed over a long-awaited accounting of its nuclear work to Chinese officials on Thursday, fulfilling a key step in the denuclearization process. Bush said the move was “a step closer in the right direction” although he made clear the United States remains suspicious about the communist regime in Pyongyang.
“The United States has no illusions about the regime,” Bush said in a statement that he read to reporters in the Rose Garden.
Specifically, Bush said the U.S. would erase trade sanctions under the Trading With the Enemy Act, and notify Congress that, in 45 days, it intends to take North Korea off the State Department list of nations that sponsor terrorism.
Wow, I guess North Korea is no longer a nuclear threat but somehow Cuba is more of a threat than North Korea?

one of the great ironies.
How many Americans died fighting during the Korean war?
How many American troops still need to be stationed in South Korea to protect its independance?
How mcuh personal freedom do the North korean people enjoy compared to the Cuban people?
How soon will North Korea get most favored trading status ....
Ironic
Cuba insists on a unilateral end to the embargo. Not going to happen. The question is what is Cuba prepared to bring to the negotiation table? Such as the release of all political prisoners.

It is clear because Cuba is only 90 miles from the United States and it is a Communist or Socialist country that thier is one standard for all the other Communist Countries like China and Russia and another standard especially made for Cuba because the US doesn’t want any of that Marxism to rub off on them; so Cuba is treated different but for how much longer when EU want to lift sanctions and there is great bipartisian support to lift that sanction in the United States too. Cuba is becoming more like Vietnam and China; the US biggest trade partner. Cuba has no nukes like North Korea and China does. China has most favorible trade status but Cuba doesn’t. There is a clear Basis toward Cuba in foriegn policy and we treat Cuba worser then we treat some are our worse eniemies but for how much longer will this unfair treatment of this country last and when it all break down will that mean that Cuba has change because not going to change or does that mean we in the US are going change more like rest of world thinking about the unfavorable Cuban policy.
