Under siege and still standing: Cuba, imperial punishment, and revolutionary resistance

By Isaac Saney*

Since the U.S. imperialist invasion of Venezuela and the kidnapping of Nicolás Maduro, the Western media has been awash with the familiar chorus: Cuba is about to fall. Once again, pundits, think tanks, and editorial boards dust off an old script, announcing the imminent demise of the Cuban Revolution. Hardship is paraded as destiny; scarcity is reframed as failure; endurance is mocked as denial. The message is clear and rehearsed: history has run its course, and Cuba must submit.

They resisted with unparalleled fortitude and bravery

Speech by Julio Fonseca, president of the Association of Cuban Residents in Toronto "Juan Gualberto Gómez", in tribute to the 32 Cuban combatants who fell in Venezuela.

Sisters and brothers,

The occasion that brings us together this afternoon is a very sad one. We are overcome by a great sadness, and an even greater indignation at the American barbarity and its total violation of the most fundamental norms of International Law, and its lack of respect for the sovereignty of other States.
