Hey there, I’m Cuban refugee . I can’t stop laughing at that interview. My girlfriend it’s getting mad as a proud Texan and she’s starting to understand the lie that Cuban government has sold to the world for decades. I’ll be more than happy to give you an interview from a recent arrived Cuban. I’ll believe that the Cuban people’s side hasn’t been revealed to the world in this larger scale yet. I used to work in a high level of information position in the only communications company in the country and can relate about the government control of all the communications whit a detailed knowledge. Lets ask them some questions that they can’t answer!

The man interviewed is Carlos Fernández de Cossío, deputy minister of foreign affairs of Cuba, who represents the interests of the Cuban government, a one-party Marxist-Leninist socialist republic, remnant of the Cold War in the Americas. He represents a government system that has imposed on the Cuban people a collectivist ideology, a planned economy and abolished civil rights such as the persecution, imprisonment and banishment of dissent, the prohibition of the democratic right of assembly and peaceful association, as well as limitations on free trade and markets. All of this, and not the United States embargo on Cuba, has caused the greatest damage to us, the Cuban people. We Cubans need a modern liberal democracy, with free markets and multiparty elections, with limited government and full civil rights to end 65 years of economic suffering and lack of freedoms. Patria y Vida! 🇨🇺🙏🏼

The embargo is a tired excuse Cuba’s government uses to paper over their own mismanagement as well as the rampant theft of national resources in foreign bank accounts. The Castro brothers have billions squirreled away in foreign banks.

Camilo: Great job with a tough guest. I watched several pieces on Fernandez de Cossio's recent immigration comments. You managed his counter-points well.

This is very good interview, congratulations for both. It shows unseen view of the other side of the coin.

Why doesn’t he ask the Cuban diplomat why they decided along with Nicaraguan regime to lift visa requirements to Nicaragua shortening their way to the us border. Cuban dictators are the biggest coyotes in the Caribbean

Great interview! I hope to see Mr Fernandez become Cuba's next President! I believe he would be perfect for the Job/Country....

The cynicism of the Cuban government is appalling. For context, I'm taking the below comment by another member of this platform: "Carlos Fernadez de Cossio has the joint son he had with Gertrudis Martorell Ballester, living in the United States, in Miami, as a rich young man. His father was a lifelong diplomat and ambassador to several countries, including Mexico. He has his sister living in Miami and the youngest of the male brothers who died a few years ago, also there. He lived in Canada when his father was appointed diplomat there in the 1960s, which is why he speaks English so well. They were always one of the bourgeois families of Cuba since 1959 of the privileged Castroites. Interesting data about his father José Agustin Fernandez de Cossio from before 1959 can be found on the RepressorID page. The brother who remains in Cuba, with the same name and profession as his father, has also carried out diplomatic activities"
