The El Paso Diary is written by José Pertierra--an attorney who represents the government of Venezuela in its request for the extradition of Luis Posada Carriles. Pertierra´s journals describe the testimony, evidence, legal skirmishes, quirks and follies of this very historic trial that features for the first time the close collaboration of the United States government with Cuban authorities to prosecute an ex CIA agent who is one of the masterminds of the fifty-year old dirty war against Cuba.

The U.S. government should listen to the Cuban people demanding an end to the blockade
It takes a lot of nerve for the U.S. President to assume a tone of concern for the Cuban people, while maintaining the genocidal blockade and allocating millions of dollars for subversion in our country. Displaying colossal hypocrisy, he repeated the Trump administration’s script, rushing to invest as “legitimate” the groups of vandals who disturbed the peace and public order in Cuba, this past Sunday, July 11.

The streets of Cuba belong to revolutionaries and we will defend them
Enemies of the Revolution want to take advantage of our problems to apply the social unrest formula they have used in other countries; but with Cuba there are no formulas that work. “We are here because the streets belong to Fidel, because the streets of Cuba belong to revolutionaries.” This was the phrase we heard the loudest walking along several Havana avenues Sunday afternoon, July 11, when an entire people came out to defend their Revolution.

The simulation failed
Simulation is the basic strategy employed by some figures intent upon subverting the social order chosen and supported by the majority of Cubans, of our own free will, camouflaging their political intentions with artistic concerns; faking interest in dialogue when the real goal is the imposition of an intransigent monologue; and proclaiming independent, spontaneous attitudes, behind which the promotion of a servile, submissive project is easily discovered.

Another counterrevolutionary provocation took place on the morning of January 27, in front of the Ministry of Culture, when a group of persons, the majority known to be cyber-mercenaries in the pay of the U.S. government, mounted a media show with a re-edited version the script about “necessary dialogue” between institutions and artists, a dialogue that this group has sabotaged on a number of occasions and which, in fact, is of no interest to them, as has been made clear by their conduct since November of 2020.

Workers at the Ministry of Culture confront media provocation
This past December, the Ministry of Culture issued a statement entitled “Those who asked for dialogue disrupt the dialogue.” The document was drafted after Fernando Rojas, Deputy Minister of Culture, received via e-mail an “unacceptable” message from several of the persons with whom he had met on November 27, when, on a very meaningful date for Cubans, a group of artists gathered in front of the Ministry’s headquarters to demand a dialogue. Some of the individuals present came in response to a call posted on social networks by persons who had no interest whatsoever in discussing cultural issues.

The truth is always revolutionary: Art, freedom of expression and dialogue within Socialism
For several days the Cuban Revolution has lived a new chapter in its long history of attacks to destroy it. Accustomed to tensions and lies against her, she now faces an attempt to manipulate the critical spirit of a country and show it as the point of the spear. In the midst of a scenario nuanced by the insufficiencies of the internal economy, the inhuman pressures of the US blockade and the pause imposed by COVID-19, a discourse that incorporates, along with the claims of a group of honest artists and creators , takes force.
