It is said that Ran was born from March to July of the year of the year. 【】 The thing of the day is only with. o Tens of thousands of people, but the impact on the international community is no less than that of the Middle East war. At the time of the key, there were even many people who believed that a full-scale war between the Republic and the United States was about to break out. The reason is simple: in the past few months, there has been a series of thrilling upheavals on the largest island in the Caribbean, with a population of 10,000.

On the day of Lang Wa, the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Cuba suddenly announced that Cassily Castro had resigned from the post of general secretary due to health reasons, and that Felix Lawrence would be appointed as general secretary on an interim basis.

On the surface, there is nothing else worth paying attention to this promise except that it is a little sudden.

Cassily Castro was the second son of Raul Castro and the most politically talented of the Castro brothers. After Raul Castro retired in the concave year, Cassili Castro became the de facto leader of Cuba, and officially became the general secretary of the Cuban Workers' Party in the milk year, and concurrently served as the head of state in the year of Lihu, officially becoming the supreme leader of Cuba.

Because he had studied abroad, studied finance and international relations, and lived abroad for a long time before leaving the old age, Cassili was a very open leader, and in the eyes of some Western news media, Cassili would be the persimmon maker of the new Cuba. In fact, after returning to Cuba in the year of the blade, Cassili was an important member of the Cuban Workers' Party and had the right to speak. In the year of Likou, Cassili officially assumed the party post and entered the Cuban political arena. In a certain sense, Cuba's ability to speed up its reform and transition to a market economy country has a lot to do with Cassili, and Cuba's ability to work closely with the Republic is also related to Cassili. Apparently, Cassily did not become the kind of reformer that the Western news media hoped for, but a very pragmatic politician. It is precisely because of this that in the year of Liqiu, that is, after officially becoming the supreme leader of Cuba, Cassili was labeled as "pro-China" by many Western news media, and was called the three pro-China leaders in Latin America along with the presidents of Venezuela and Argentina.

In fact, Cassily was not outright pro-Chinese.

As mentioned earlier, he is a very pragmatic leader of the country. Because of his extraordinary insight and rich experience in international exchanges, Cassili has always believed that there is absolutely no "brotherly relationship" between countries. "There is a relationship of mutual utilization and interdependence between any countries. This realization makes Cassily very pragmatic when dealing with practical problems, and sometimes even a little ruthless. For example, when dealing with trade disputes, Cassili's exclusivity policy has made many republican enterprises feel dissatisfied, believing that the Cuban authorities should open up their faces, after all, in Cuba's modernization, republican enterprises have made significant contributions.

Thankfully, on the Republic's side. The leader of the same period as Feng Xili was Wang Yuanqing.

As we all know, Wang Yuanqing is also a very pragmatic person. Although some of Cassili's policies made Wang Yuanqing feel very uncomfortable, for example, at the beginning of the year, when Wang Yuanqing visited seven Latin American countries, he was given a cold reception in Havana because he did not give an answer to a question that Cassili attached great importance to. But after removing the personal factor. When it comes to the interests of the state and the nation, Wang Yuanqing does not dislike Cassili's approach, and has repeatedly claimed that only fair, just, and open exchanges can make Sino-Cuban relations develop normally and the friendship between the two countries can be maintained for a long time. All in all, as the leader of the country, Wang Yuanqing greatly appreciates Cassili's approach in safeguarding national interests. For example, when attending the "China-Latin America Cross-Regional Economic Cooperation Brain Summit", Wang Yuanqing mentioned to the presidents of Argentina and Venezuela that if the leader of a country cannot take the protection of his own interests as his own responsibility and selflessly think about his allies or friendly countries everywhere, he will not be a qualified leader, and it is impossible for him to win the support and support of the people. Although Wang Yuanqing's remarks were aimed at Argentina at that time, in order to make the Republic express its position on the Falklands issue, many of the policies of the Argentine authorities were biased towards foreign enterprises, especially those of the Republic, rather than with the main purpose of protecting their own interests, but this can also be seen as targeting Cassili, because among the three Latin American countries with close relations with the Republic, only Cuba has a more correct attitude.

The problem is that Cassily's approach to a powerful Cuba is still unacceptable to the United States.

In fact, a Cuba that seeks to grow itself is more difficult to deal with than a Cuba that actively seeks to seek refuge in other countries.

From the standpoint of the United States, as long as Cuba defects to the republic, it will have reason to send troops, and even if it will be opposed by the majority of countries at that time, Latin American and European countries will not think that the United States has done too much, or at least will not openly oppose it, so that the US authorities do not need to worry too much about international pressure.

While Cuba is actively pursuing independence, the United States authorities have no interest in going to war.

In any case, every country or nation has the right to seek development, and it is a right that cannot be taken away.

More importantly, if Cuba turns to the Republic after it has grown stronger, what will the United States do?

Although in the eyes of many people, the stronger Cuba is, the less likely Cassili is to defect to the Republic, but Cassili cannot live forever, and therefore cannot rule Cuba forever. With Cuba's social system, unless Cassili carries out an earth-shattering political reform like Wang Yuanqing, the next leader after him is very likely to make Cuba fall to the republic and become an ally of the republic. The reality is that, depending on the basic situation in the country...", that is, at a time when economic development must be taken seriously, Cassili could not talk about reform alone.

Even after the past few years, the global economy has turned around, and the recovery of the Cuban economy has even exceeded the global average, because there are too many debts owed in the early stage, and it is impossible for Cassili to change his focus and put aside economic construction to carry out political reforms. You must know that even in the field year, Cuba's per capita national income is only at the middle level in Latin America, not only not comparable to Mexico, Brazil, and even Venezuela. Because Cassili insisted on carrying out economic reforms, it was the government's priority to raise national income under the impetus of marketization. In other words, if Cassili's Workers' Party cannot help raise the income of the people, it will not be able to gain support.

And so it goes. As long as the economy develops, whether it is Cassili or anyone else in office, Cuba will follow the example of the Republic and promote political reforms.

The point is that when it comes to political reform, the only thing Cuba can learn is the Republic.

From the standpoint of the United States, we have to consider a situation, that is, as the Republic gains a say in Cuba's political reform, will Cuba be completely committed to the Republic?

The answer is obvious, even if Cassili is still the one who presides over the political reforms, Cuba will fall to the republic.

Obviously, the key lies in Cassili.

Or rather, the economic reforms promoted by Cassili.

If Cuba's economic reforms fail, there will be no basis for political reform, and it will be even less likely that Cuba will reach the Republic because of the economic downturn.

If Cuba's economic reforms fail, it is necessary to create political turmoil in Cuba and get rid of Cassili.

As a result, after the hoarding years, U.S. intelligence agencies developed at least hundreds of assassination plans against Cassily, and turned several of them into action. Prior to the year, there had been a number of assassinations against Cassily that had been recognized by the Cuban authorities alone, the most serious of which had occurred in a weak year, when Cassili was inspecting work in Santiago. The explosion struck, and all the bodyguards who stood between him and the bomb were killed, leaving Cassily wounded.

It was this assassination that caused Cassili's body to collapse completely.

In the year of Likou, Cassily resigned as the leader of the country, retaining only the post of general secretary of the Workers' Party.

Like his uncle, Cassily has taken a back seat since the beginning of his life, controlling the overall situation remotely.

In fact, no one doubts Cassili's position and influence in Cuban politics. Because of his efforts, the Cuban economy has developed rapidly, the national income has grown rapidly, and the people's living standards have generally improved, so Cassili has a very high status in the hearts of Cubans, even surpassing his uncle.

In a sense, after taking a back seat, Cassili became Cuba's "spiritual leader."

In the words of some Western news media, as the country's average life expectancy is on par with the number of years, Cassili, as the country's leader, will at least have a chance to live, so there will be no fundamental change in Cuba's national strategy in the years of the future. According to Cuba's development, especially its relative economic growth, Cuba will enter the ranks of leading countries in the next century, and may even become the richest country in the Western Hemisphere in terms of per capita national income, so Cassili will become the most important and greatest leader in Cuban history.

The problem is that the United States certainly doesn't want Cassily to live for so long.

As analyzed above, no matter when Cuba becomes a major country, whether it will carry out political reforms before it becomes a major country, and whether or not political reforms will make Cuba an independent and self-determined democratic country, Cuba will form an alliance with the Republic and pose a major strategic threat to the United States.

In the era of the blade, this threat was not urgent.

In any case, the Republic did not directly challenge the United States at that time, nor did it have the idea of a showdown with the United States.

As the international situation began to heat up, the US authorities could no longer afford to delay.

Even if the Republic does not follow the example of the former Soviet Union and deploy strategic weapons to Cuba, after all, with the strategic strength of the Republic, there is absolutely no need to deploy strategic weapons in Cuba, and according to the assessment of the US intelligence agencies, as long as the Republic secretly deploys a set of long-range passive detection equipment in Cuba, it will be able to have a full view of the situation in most of the United States east of Mount Rocky. When the time comes, the United States will be like a naked beauty, with no secrets to speak of. In fact, it is indeed possible that the Republic has deployed a long-range passive detection system in Cuba, since all the ground guidance stations of civil aviation in Cuba are built by enterprises of the Republic, and the radar systems of civil aviation are also produced by enterprises of the Republic. At the time of the sale of this civilian equipment to Cuba, it is likely that the authorities of the Republic will bring the passive detection system into Cuba and will have special technicians among the accompanying engineers to assemble and commission the passive detection system in Cuba. What's more, the passive detection system does not produce any signals and can also be very discreet depending on the terrain. In other words, whether the Republic has deployed a passive detection system in Cuba or not, the US intelligence agencies simply cannot draw conclusions.

When it comes to national strategic security, we must rather believe in what it has than what it doesn't.

Exactly. The U.S. authorities will take action.

From the standpoint of the United States, whether or not it sends troops, it is not wrong to create some unstable factors in Cuba first.

Removing Cassily from power, no matter who comes to power, will cause a political storm.

The problem is that it is not only the United States that is paying attention to Cuba

On Lonvin, Cassili publicly stated on Cuban state television that he was still in good health and fully capable of the post of general secretary of the Workers' Party, and that he had no intention of resigning.

In making this statement, Cassily also called on the people of the whole country to calm down and not create uneasiness.

If it ends at this time, then what is born within these 2 days is nothing more than an unsuccessful coup d'état.

The problem is that Cassili disappeared from the public eye after the statement.

Apparently. This is a very abnormal phenomenon. You must know that in the situation at that time, it must have been a group of leaders led by Lawrence who tried to overthrow Cassily and seize power in Cuba, and as the supreme leader of the country, Cassili should have taken action after making a statement, at least removing Lawrence and others from their posts.

It was not until March that the Party of Labor of Cuba stated that Cassili had really fallen ill.

In order to prove this, the Workers' Party of Cuba also brought in a doctor of the Republic who provided medical services to Cassily and proved that Cassily had been admitted to the hospital on the night of 10,000 March and had received emergency treatment.

Two days later, the Workers' Party of Cuba announced the results of a preliminary diagnosis of Cassily's condition.

The reason for the arrival of the elderly national leader was the explosion a few years ago, when due to the emergency situation and other factors, a piece of shrapnel remained in Cassili's body, and one of the shrapnel with a diameter of about a millimeter entered the brain along the neck artery, causing a cerebral hemorrhage. Although this condition is not hopeless, relying on Da's medical technology, the shrapnel can be removed or dissolved in the blood vessels, but in any case, such a major operation will certainly not be performed in Cuba, and it will leave Cassily in bed for several months.

As a result, Cassily left Cuba on April 4 for medical treatment in Beijing.

On the same day, Lawrence announced an early party election.

Although the intra-party elections do not have much to do with the national elections, they are based on the national conditions of Cuba. The supreme leader is not the head of the country, but the general secretary of the Workers' Party, so the party election is more important than the national election. That's exactly why not everyone is rooting for Lawrnes.

The dispute continued until the beginning of the month, when it finally ended in a mutual compromise, i.e. the party elections were held at the same time as the national elections.

Although it was believed at the time that this was the result of the influence exerted by the Republic, since it was related to political reform, which in Cuba had always been the highest goal of the Republican authorities, in reality, the events that took place at the beginning of the year had nothing to do with political reform. You must know that any reform requires a strong, leader-like figure, and Cuba has no power at this time, let alone political reform related to the basic structure of the country's society, and even high-level personnel changes can lead to big trouble.

In fact, this is exactly what the United States wants.

If the results of the intra-party elections were to be contrary to the results of the national elections, the basic elements of social stability in Cuba would be dismantled.

It turned out to be true, with Lawrence narrowly winning the party election but failing to secure more than half of the vote in the national election.

At the beginning of June, the second round of voting in the national elections began.

Although Lawnes, who has become the general secretary of the Cuban Workers' Party, has rallied the party's forces, some smaller parties that have not previously participated in the ruling work have formed a coalition and threatened to defeat the Workers' Party in the second round of elections and completely change the political landscape of Cuba.

This is the work of the American intelligence agencies, without a doubt.

In any case, Cuba is a Latin American country, and there is no shortage of democratic ideas in the region. You must know that more than four years before the wave of independence broke out in the era of the power century, all Latin American countries completed the independence revolution. It is precisely for this reason that the Cuban authorities do not exclude other political parties, nor can they exclude them.

In mid-June, the counting of votes for the second round of the general election was completed.

Although the results showed the victory of the Workers' Party led by Lawnes and Lawnes was successfully elected to the Cuban national president, the coalition of political parties that lost the election claimed that there was serious fraud in the election and demanded a reballot under the supervision of international institutions, while the Workers' Party of Cuba believed that there was no problem with the election and that there was no reason to revote.

The dispute continued until the end of June, when the Cuban Supreme Court decided to recount the votes instead of revoting.

On 2 July, Cuba's Electoral Commission announced that Lawr's Workers' Party had won with tens of thousands of votes, the equivalent of the nation's electorate, and that the results were valid after the legal minimum.

The next day, the coalition of political parties again announced its refusal to recognize the results of the elections and insisted on the reholding of general elections.

On July 4, Lawrence was sworn in. On the same day, he imposed martial law in Havana, Santiago and other major cities, and ordered the coalition of political parties to dissolve within a week and accept the results of the election.

Clearly, Lawrence is not a politician dealing with emergencies.

In July, before the expiration of Lawnes' ultimatum, demonstrations erupted across Cuba.

The next day, the United States declared that it was paying close attention to the situation in Cuba and ordered the fleet stationed at Nofolk and the Marines stationed in Pensaraco to enter combat mode.

July. In the afternoon, Lawrence was killed in an attack on his way to a barracks outside Havana.

At this point, the situation in Cuba is completely out of control!
