U.S. insistence that Havana undertake democratic reforms before returning to the hemispheric family led to a clash with a united front of leftist and conservative governments that see Washington’s policy toward Cuba as a relic of the Cold War.
The unexpected result was a diplomatic victory for Havana.
The newfound regional unity on Cuba may augur a growing willingness across the political spectrum to challenge the U.S. State Department on thorny issues for years considered taboo.

Depuis plusieurs semaines maintenant, les Français sont en campagne ! D’un côté, le camp Sarkozy et tous ses puissants relais et soutiens (instituts de sondage, médias, CAC 40) ; de l’autre, 70% des Français, certes répartis autour de différents candidats (de Mélenchon à Le Pen en passant par Hollande, etc…) ou même sans candidat (comme un tiers environ des sympathisants de l’UMP eux-mêmes), mais tous d’accord sur un point : éliminer Sarkozy de la présidence du pays. La campagne présidentielle française s’apparente en fait plus à une révolution populaire, à un « front », contre une clique de privilégiés ayant pris le contrôle du pays, qu’à une élection classique… Et les logiques droite-gauche n’ont plus rien à voir là-dedans.
