In Cuba nobody sees any possibility that China or Russia could oppose the United States in case President Donald Trump tried to take control of the island, militarily and through negotiations, according to diplomatic sources talking to DiplomacyNews.
China reaffirmed last week its “strategic relations” with Cuba, during the meeting held by Foreign Ministers Bruno Rodriguez and Wang Yi on the sidelines of a special session of the UN Security Council in New York.
“But words are one thing and deeds are another,” the sources affirm, who are very clear that the distribution of global areas of influence is much clearer now than it was during the Cold War and cite as an example the red line marked by Xi Jinping regarding Taiwan during Trump’s visit to Beijing.
“What can be deduced from that is that Asia and the Pacific will be under Chinese control while America and the Atlantic will be left for the United States,” they state. So Cuba —without Venezuela or Mexico, with Russia at a low point, and with China only willing to maintain a good economic relationship— is alone against its “traditional” enemy, with which it only has to negotiate the best possible agreement. Will there be a “Delcy solution” in Havana?
