Foreign Relations Of Cuba
Cuba's foreign policy has been fluid throughout history depending on world events and other variables, including relations with the United States. Without massive Soviet subsidies and its primary trade, trading partner, Cuba became increasingly isolated in the late 1980s and early 1990s after the fall of the USSR and the end of the Cold War, but Cuba opened up more with the rest of the world again starting in the late 1990s when they have since entered bilateral co-operation with several South American countries, most notably Venezuela and Bolivia beginning in the late 1990s, especially after the Venezuela election of Hugo Chávez in 1999, who became a staunch ally of Fidel Castro, Castro's Cuba.

Cuba–Holy See Relations
Cuba–Holy See relations are foreign relations between the Holy See and the Republic of Cuba. Three Popes have visited Cuba: John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and Francis. History Following the 1959 Cuban Revolution, Prime Minister Fidel Castro embraced Marxism-Leninism and greater ties with the Soviet Union. In the communist tradition, Castro imposed state atheism, restricting the role that religion could play in the country. However, religious suppression never reached the same levels that it did in many other communist states, and the Holy See never broke off diplomatic relations with Cuba. The Catholic clergy, in Rome, the United States, and Cuba itself, have generally taken a policy of opposing the American embargo on Cuba, citing humanitarian reasons. In December 1989, Cardinal Roger Etchegaray, then president of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace (a former dicastery of the Roman Curia) visited Cuba to dialogue with Castro about church-state relations. Castro said ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
