Cuba’s authoritarian alliances are a threat to democracy. Cuba's alliances with China and Russia forge a global culture of impunity for atrocity crimes.

Alliances between authoritarian regimes are one of the greatest global threats facing democracy today. Collaboration between autocrats makes them stronger, and more effective at surveilling, isolating, and persecuting human rights defenders. Two such alliances are between Cuba and China, and Cuba and Russia. And the effects of these alliances on the pro-democratic Cuban movement are stark.

China dominates the telecommunications sector in Cuba, including the expansion of internet access on the island that has been done with Chinese technology and advice. This is concerning for the future of internet freedom in Cuba. China’s Great Firewall has managed to erase critical historical events, including the Tiananmen Square massacre, from the memory of new generations. China has 900 million internet users and only between 3 to 15 percent manage to circumvent the Great Firewall through use of virtual private networks (VPNs).

Why Don’t Haitians Immigrate to Cuba - Paradise for the Poor, According to Democrats? Are they unaware of the Garden of Eden Castro and Che created there?.

“Haitians who landed in Cuba return to their country,” recently reported Dominican Today. The first group of 586 Haitian migrants, of the 842 who landed nine days ago on the coast of the central Cuban province of Villa Clara, returned to their country of origin…the rest of the migrants are expected to return by air between this Friday and Saturday, the director of the Red Cross in Villa Clara,…The boat capsized on May 24 off the coast of Villa Clara when trying to reach the United States.”

Yes, thousands of desperate Haitians pile aboard floating junk heaps and set off across hundreds of miles of storm-tossed, shark-infested Atlantic waters for Florida. If their luck holds, they'll make landfall. If it keeps holding, within a year they'll be scrubbing congealed grease and burnt macaroni off pots in some greasy spoon for minimum wage. 

Are they crazy? Heck, they won't even qualify for reparations!
