Since the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, US imperialism has spent 67 years deploying every possible method of pressure, terror and destabilization to force the Cuban people into submission.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
These decades have seen the Bay of Pigs invasion, covert CIA operations, sabotage campaigns, biological attacks against Cuba\u2019s agriculture, hundreds of assassination attempts against revolutionary leaders, terrorist violence by proxy forces, diplomatic encirclement, media disinformation campaigns, and an ongoing economic and financial blockade intended to strangle the Revolution.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They failed every single time. The enormous political, economic and intelligence resources devoted to destroying Cuba produced nothing but defeat for the United States. Because what stood before them was not merely a \u201cregime\u201d they found undesirable, but a politically conscious and organized people who had won their independence through revolution.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But despite repeated failure, Washington did not give up its destructive campaign against honorable people of Cuba.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Because the existence of a sovereign, socialist country with a state-led and planned economy for more than six decades, just miles from their shores has always represented a historic defeat for U.S. imperialism. The Cuban Revolution demonstrated to the peoples of Latin America that another path was possible and openly challenged the imperialist system imposed on Washington\u2019s so-called \u201cbackyard.\u201d Washington\u2019s bitterness and hostility stem precisely\u00a0 <\/span>from this historic challenge.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Driven by this historic frustration, successive U.S. administrations intensified their aggression each time they failed against Cuba. They assumed that they could finally strangle the Revolution when the Soviet Union collapsed and again after the death of Fidel Castro, yet Cuba endured.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today, as part of a broader wave of aggression aimed at restoring its weakening global hegemony, U.S. imperialism is once again attempting to force Cuba into submission. Donald Trump, abandoning even the old diplomatic rhetoric dressed up in the language of \u201chuman rights\u201d and \u201cdemocracy,\u201d openly threatens Cuba in the crude language of colonial domination. He seeks to go down in history as the president who finally fulfilled Washington\u2019s 67-year-old dream.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Trump administration\u2019s policy toward Cuba is well known. In recent months, sanctions targeting the energy sector, interventions aimed at disrupting fuel supply chains, pressure imposed on third countries, and the expansion of financial siege mechanisms have all been designed to push Cuba toward economic paralysis. Prolonged blackouts, transportation crises, disruptions in production, and severe shortages of basic necessities have made daily life extraordinarily difficult for the Cuban people and placed their health and future at risk. Through what Cubans rightly describe as a genocidal policy, Washington seeks to force the Cuban people into submission and destroy the revolutionary government.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yet rather than surrendering in the face of this aggression, the Cuban people continue to confront the complex challenges created by the blockade with determination and collective solidarity. They are developing creative solutions through mass mobilization while also pursuing long-term strategies aimed at securing economic stability and energy sovereignty beyond the grip of U.S. imperialism. Despite the blockade, the Communist Party of Cuba continues to defend public healthcare, education and the other achievements of socialism. The social collapse anticipated by imperialism has not materialized. Cuba has not bowed down.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The clearest expression of this determination has been the My Signature for My Homeland (Mi Firma por Mi Patria) campaign, signed by millions of Cubans, as well as the massive May Day mobilizations held across the island demonstrating the people\u2019s unwavering commitment to the Revolution.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Having failed to achieve its objectives, the Trump administration has now begun voicing direct military threats against Cuba with increasing intensity. In particular, known for his political career built on hostility toward Cuba, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the anti-Cuban circles gathered around him are pushing Washington\u2019s historically aggressive Cuba policy in an even more reckless, vindictive and militaristic direction. Intertwined with the Miami-based anti-Cuban establishment, the Republican far right, and interventionist networks embedded within the U.S. bureaucracy, this political bloc seeks to normalize direct military aggression against Cuba.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Should U.S. reactionaries attempt a military attack against Cuba, the Cuban people will defend their country with the full historical legacy of the Revolution, their organized strength and their anti-imperialist consciousness. In such a confrontation, the United States would face not only Cuba\u2019s armed forces, but millions determined to defend their revolutionary homeland.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Communist Party of Turkey stands absolutely clear and resolute on this question.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Our position remains unchanged: we stand firmly with Cuba against imperialist aggression, economic siege and threats of military intervention and deem it our historic responsibility to widen solidarity with the people of Cuba. In the event of an imperialist aggression, we are prepared to mobilize all our political, organizational and social resources in solidarity with Cuba.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Cuba will not stand alone. Imperialist brutality will not overcome the resistance of the Cuban people, who continue to carry the banner of socialism and the dignity of humanity. The Communist Party of Turkey will remain committed to strengthen the internationalist solidarity with revolutionary Cuba across the world.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Long live Cuba!<\/p>\n Down with imperialism!<\/p>\n ***<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a1Estamos con Cuba frente a la agresi\u00f3n de EE. UU.!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Desde la Revoluci\u00f3n Cubana hasta hoy, durante 67 a\u00f1os, el imperialismo estadounidense ha recurrido a toda clase de maldades imaginables para someter al pueblo cubano.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n En estos 67 a\u00f1os han cabido la invasi\u00f3n de Bah\u00eda de Cochinos, operaciones de la CIA, sabotajes, ataques biol\u00f3gicos contra tierras agr\u00edcolas, cientos de intentos de asesinato contra la dirigencia cubana, actividades terroristas de grupos paramilitares, el cerco diplom\u00e1tico, operaciones medi\u00e1ticas, el bloqueo comercial, financiero y econ\u00f3mico, y los intentos de crear una contrarrevoluci\u00f3n dentro del pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fracasaron en todos ellos. Todo el ruido que hicieron los gobernantes estadounidenses para hundir a Cuba y todos los recursos que destinaron acabaron en la basura. Porque frente a ellos no hab\u00eda un \u201cr\u00e9gimen\u201d que no consideraban aceptable, sino un pueblo organizado que conquist\u00f3 su independencia mediante una revoluci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sin embargo, no abandonaron sus pol\u00edticas destructivas.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Porque consideran una derrota hist\u00f3rica que, a pocos kil\u00f3metros de sus costas, en una isla que ven como uno de sus sat\u00e9lites, se mantenga en pie desde hace m\u00e1s de sesenta a\u00f1os un poder soberano, p\u00fablico, planificador y socialista. Porque la Revoluci\u00f3n Cubana mostr\u00f3 a los pueblos de Am\u00e9rica Latina que otro camino era posible; desafi\u00f3 el orden del \u201cpatio trasero\u201d del imperialismo. La rabia interminable y el resentimiento de Washington provienen precisamente de ah\u00ed.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A medida que las administraciones estadounidenses fracasaban frente a Cuba movidas por ese resentimiento, fueron elevando el tono y aumentando el nivel de agresividad. Tambi\u00e9n pensaron que podr\u00edan asfixiar a Cuba mientras se desintegraba la Uni\u00f3n Sovi\u00e9tica y tambien luego cuando falleci\u00f3 Fidel Castro, l\u00edder de la Revoluci\u00f3n Cubana, pero no lo lograron.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hoy el imperialismo estadounidense intenta una vez m\u00e1s someter a Cuba como parte de la ola de agresiones que ha desatado para reforzar su debilitada hegemon\u00eda internacional. Donald Trump, que ha dejado completamente de lado el viejo lenguaje diplom\u00e1tico adornado con discursos sobre derechos humanos y democracia para amenazar a Cuba con un tono colonialista salvaje, quiere pasar a la historia como el presidente que hizo realidad el \u201csue\u00f1o americano\u201d de 67 a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n La pol\u00edtica de la administraci\u00f3n Trump hacia Cuba es conocida p\u00fablicamente. En los \u00faltimos meses, las sanciones centradas especialmente en el \u00e1mbito energ\u00e9tico, las intervenciones dirigidas contra las cadenas de suministro de combustible, las presiones sobre terceros pa\u00edses y la ampliaci\u00f3n de los mecanismos de cerco financiero han tenido como objetivo llevar a Cuba a una situaci\u00f3n de par\u00e1lisis econ\u00f3mica. De hecho, los largos cortes de electricidad, las crisis en el transporte, las interrupciones en la producci\u00f3n y las dificultades para acceder a productos de primera necesidad han hecho que la vida cotidiana en Cuba sea extraordinariamente dif\u00edcil, hasta el punto de amenazar la salud y el futuro de la poblaci\u00f3n. El objetivo de la administraci\u00f3n estadounidense con estas pol\u00edticas, que los cubanos califican con raz\u00f3n de \u201cgenocidio\u201d, es doblegar al pueblo cubano y acabar as\u00ed con el poder revolucionario en Cuba.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sabemos que nuestros hermanos cubanos, en lugar de tirar la toalla frente a esta agresi\u00f3n, est\u00e1n luchando con todas sus fuerzas contra los complejos problemas provocados por el bloqueo; que, en un clima de movilizaci\u00f3n social y solidaridad, est\u00e1n produciendo soluciones creativas; y que, m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de salvar el d\u00eda a d\u00eda, est\u00e1n dando pasos estrat\u00e9gicos a largo plazo para liberar la econom\u00eda del pa\u00eds y su seguridad energ\u00e9tica del cerco del imperialismo estadounidense. El Partido Comunista de Cuba sigue defendiendo el sistema p\u00fablico de salud, la educaci\u00f3n y las dem\u00e1s conquistas del socialismo pese al bloqueo. La descomposici\u00f3n social que esperaba el imperialismo no se produjo. El pueblo cubano no se arrodill\u00f3. La expresi\u00f3n m\u00e1s clara de ello fue la campa\u00f1a \u201cMi Firma por la Patria\u201d, respaldada por millones de cubanos, y las masivas manifestaciones del Primero de Mayo en toda la isla que demostraron la firme resistencia popular.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Al no conseguir el resultado deseado, la administraci\u00f3n Trump ha empezado ahora a expresar de forma m\u00e1s agresiva la amenaza de una intervenci\u00f3n militar directa. Especialmente el secretario de Estado Marco Rubio, cuya carrera pol\u00edtica se ha construido sobre la hostilidad hacia Cuba, y los sectores anticubanos agrupados a su alrededor, est\u00e1n empujando la ya hist\u00f3ricamente agresiva pol\u00edtica estadounidense hacia Cuba hacia una l\u00ednea a\u00fan m\u00e1s descontrolada, vengativa y belicista. Esta estructura, estrechamente ligada a sectores anexionistas con base en Miami, al ala de extrema derecha del Partido Republicano y a n\u00facleos intervencionistas dentro de la burocracia estatal, fomenta la discusi\u00f3n de opciones militares directas all\u00ed donde el genocidio econ\u00f3mico no ha sido suficiente.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Si los reaccionarios estadounidenses se atrevieran a lanzar una agresi\u00f3n militar contra Cuba, el pueblo cubano defender\u00e1 su pa\u00eds con toda la acumulaci\u00f3n hist\u00f3rica de la revoluci\u00f3n, su organizaci\u00f3n y su conciencia antiimperialista. En caso de una agresi\u00f3n as\u00ed, los estadounidenses no solo se encontrar\u00e1n frente a las fuerzas armadas cubanas, sino frente a millones de personas que defienden su patria revolucionaria.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nosotros, como Partido Comunista de Turqu\u00eda, no tenemos la menor duda al respecto.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ayer como hoy, estamos junto a Cuba. Consideramos una tarea hist\u00f3rica ampliar la solidaridad con el pueblo cubano frente a todo tipo de agresiones, cercos y amenazas de intervenci\u00f3n militar del imperialismo estadounidense.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Y lo declaramos abiertamente:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n En caso de una agresi\u00f3n imperialista, estamos preparados para movilizar todos nuestros recursos pol\u00edticos, organizativos y sociales para la defensa de Cuba.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n No dejaremos sola a Cuba. La brutalidad imperialista no podr\u00e1 quebrar la resistencia del pueblo cubano, que porta la dignidad de la humanidad y la bandera del socialismo. El TKP seguir\u00e1 siendo una de las fuerzas de vanguardia de la creciente solidaridad internacionalista que se extiende por todo el mundo para apoyar esa resistencia.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a1Viva Cuba!<\/p>\n \u00a1Abajo el imperialismo!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Since the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, US imperialism has spent 67 years deploying every possible method of pressure, terror and destabilization to force the Cuban people into submission.
