Bloomberg Salivates Over 'Toppling' Cuba as Trump's Prize
The piece, subtly titled 'Toppling Cuba Would Be an Added Prize for Donald Trump,' discusses the 'removal' of Venezuela’s leadership and its impact on Havana, speculating about Cuba’s future as if its government is just a stubborn chess piece on a board. This remarkably detached commentary completely sidesteps decades of US-orchestrated economic strangulation, including sanctions on food,
medicine, and trade that directly impact the Cuban people, many of which were tightened under the very Trump administration Bloomberg now suggests stands to 'profit' from the island's collapse. One might wonder if Bloomberg would be quite so sanguine if a foreign power were discussing the 'toppling' of a US government as a 'prize.' The article ignores the continuous, bipartisan US efforts to
destabilize Cuba since 1959, from the Bay of Pigs to the ongoing embargo—actions documented repeatedly by the UN, which votes overwhelmingly against the embargo every single year. How many 'prizes' can one nation endure before it's called what it is: relentless imperial pressure?
