As 48 members of the U.S. Congress plead with comatose Jar-Jar Biden and his sidekick Kamala to remove Cuba from the list of terrorist-sponsoring states, what does Castro, Inc. do? It sends its grossly obese Prime Minister to strike all kinds of deals with Iran, one of the world’s most active sponsors of terrorism. Yeah.
The sad truth is that the moribund Biden administration would love to cozy up to Castro, Inc. and remove all sanctions against it. And if Cackling Kamala becomes president, the master chef of leftist word salads will probably launch Obamapalooza 2.0 during her first month in office. Sad but true.

“It is evident that Tehran seeks to position itself in Latin America, and Cuba can be the most feasible entry.” The words of Óscar Julián Villar Barroso, professor of history at the University of Havana and regular interlocutor of the Russian agency Sputnik, describe the measure of the peaceful approach, but at full speed, between the two countries.
Following the recent visit of the Cuban Prime Minister Manuel Marrero to the Iranian capital, the Island has hopes for the “increase in investments in the Cuban economy,” which remains in a coma despite Cuba’s alliances with Russia, China and Venezuela. For Villar Borroso, Havana can offer itself as a “viable and safe interlocutor” for Iran to set foot in the region.
Iran, according to Villar Barroso, is “especially” interested in helping the energy, biotechnology and transport sectors of the Island. Cuba, for its part, is interested in Iran’s ability to “process significant volumes of oil and gas.” The country has developed “an infrastructure for the exploration, extraction and treatment of hydrocarbons” and has achieved “progress in the nuclear sphere,” in addition to other “potentials and experiences” that the Island plans to use to its advantage.
Villar Barroso admits that Tehran’s interest is not so much economic as it is political. The “pragmatism” of Iranian foreign policy, he explains, is what led the new president, Masud Pezeshkian – elected after the death, in a helicopter accident, of his predecessor Ebrahim Raisí – to promise Marrero that “it will be a priority to strengthen relations with Cuba” and sign new agreements.
Pezeshkian’s speech and his dialogue with Marrero contained nods to Fidel Castro, whose “fight” against the United States he highlighted, a gesture that both Villar Barroso and Sputnik see as a good diplomatic signal towards the Cuban regime.
Cuba will be Iran’s base of operations and will help it dodge Washington’s sanctions if the U.S. tries to prevent it from doing business in Latin America, the academic evaluates. In return, Cuba will receive financial aid in “sectors where the Island has difficulty financing productions and activities.”
On the Iranian issue, Sputnik also interviewed Gleydis Sanamé Chávez, a researcher on Middle East and North Africa issues at the Havana International Policy Research Center. Sanamé said that Iran will help with the “modernization of thermoelectric and hydroelectric power plants in Cuba.”
Both countries have signed agreements in the area of sports, foreign trade, food, industry and technology, which Sanamé describes as valuable in the face of the “systematic crisis that the Island is going through.” Although, for Villar Barroso – who also talks frequently with Sputnik – the greatest value of the alliance with Tehran is that Cuba is a common factor for other regional powers, such as Russia and China, which “push for a gradual transition” and a “strategy” against Washington.

I suppose I should be more ashamed, but the country in question is not Cuba, which died long ago, but a grotesque perversion of it, and its functionaries are not Cubans but Cubanoids, or rather, Castronoids.
Lord, the nausea.
