Cuba’s top diplomat says the fizzled attempt by young activists to encourage anti-government protests this week was a failure in political communication by the organizers, who he accuses of being supported by U.S. interests.
Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez speaks during an interview with The Associated Press in Havana, Cuba, Wednesday, Nov. 17, 2021.
“It is clear that what I called a failed operation — a political communication operation organized and financed by the United States government with millionaire funds and the use of internal agents — was an absolute failure,” Rodríguez said in an interview with The Associated Press. Rodríguez also questioned the attention given to the call for protests, saying it seems “that Cuba is the only country in the world in which a protest that did not happen becomes international news.”
Rodriguez repeated the Cuban government’s contention that United States was the real force behind the protest effort. He said that of the thousands of Twitter participants and “users” involved in promoting the protests, “less than 2%” were actually in Cuba.
