Actualité - Cuba: US Needs Shift to Democracy

Havana, Jun 4 (Prensa Latina) The Cuban newspaper "Granma" reported Monday that the United States needs a democratic transition and will fail in its attempt to build an international siege against the island.

In an extensive article, the daily responded to statements against the Cuban Revolution by US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, during her recent visit to Spain.

Granma stated that, since Cuba was a priority issue on Rice s agenda with her counterpart Miguel Moratinos, we would have to ask if she tackled damages and suffering of the Cuban people due to the US blockade.

Both officials analyzed the situation in the concentration camp located on the US naval base, illegally occupying part of the Cuban territory of Guantanamo.

The article questions if the two foreign ministers discussed the CIA secret flights to Spain, kidnappings and tortures horrifying the European public opinion and the release in United States of terrorist Luis Posada Carriles.
