Today I voted for the joint resolution on Cuba, though I would have preferred it to have expressly regretted the 2005 abandonment of sanctions.
As a society built on the imperative of Marxist domination, it is no surprise that Cuba is a bastion of repression, where dissent is crushed and freedom denied.
It is a telling insight into the totalitarian and Marxist reality, which lurks behind its democratic facade, that Sinn Fein/IRA maintains representation in Cuba. It was most notoriously exposed when, in 2001, that representative, Niall Connolly, infamously organised for himself and others to train FARC guerrillas in Columbia.
The EU’s abandonment of sanctions in 2005 has been an utter failure. Human rights abuses have increased, not diminished. As ever with Marxist extremists, be they Castro or Sinn Fein, they simply pocket the concessions and carry on regardless. I say it is time we learnt the lesson and put some steel back into our stand against this hideous regime."@en1
