Israel and the US talk as if they’ve won a victory, but the reality is that world opinion has turned decisively against the Israeli regime, says RAMZY BAROUD

TWO MONTHS AGO on July 12 Mexican President Amlo (Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador) surprised many with his immediate and categorical declaration of solidarity with Cuba in response to the US-sponsored disturbances on the island.
He followed up his call for an end to the blockade by declaring that, whatever one’s opinion of the Cuban government, the island deserved a prize for dignity for its 61 years of resistance and should be declared a World Heritage site.
Actions followed words as two Mexican naval vessels carried food, medical supplies and diesel fuel to Havana (more have followed since).

The recent speech by Cuba’s President Miguel Diaz-Canel is an affirmation of Amilcar Cabral’s revolutionary principle, writes ISAAC SANEY
