President Miguel Diaz-Canel explains the unique conditions of building socialism in Cuba under the chokehold of a 60+ year US blockade – what he calls “the main obstacle to our development.”
Rejecting the accusation that the new economic reforms signal a “capitalist restoration,” he asks, “Who can teach us how socialism is built under these conditions, if no one has that experience, if no one has lived it that way?”
BT’s @ldejesusreyes, along with Jorge Lefevre Tavárez, interviewed Díaz-Canel for Puerto Rican news outlet Claridad.
