Frankly, I don&#8217;t know if they will be. I do know that there is a group of powerful people who have that intention,\u201d said the director for the United States of the Cuban Foreign Ministry. \u201cBut what Cuba cannot do is be surprised by that reality, if it happens.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now the question, several analysts bring up, is whether something like this will happen in the midst of the deterioration of the links in response to the revival in April of the Helms-Burton Act and the barrage of restrictions that followed, such as suspension, \u201cuntil further notice,\u201d of commercial flights to the Cuban provinces and the elimination of cruises.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For now, the Donald Trump administration has reacted with utmost discretion. Neither the White House nor the State Department has wanted to comment openly on what was raised by the Cuban official. Only on Tuesday, an official related to U.S. policy towards the island told several media outlets that there is nothing on the horizon about the possibility of a break.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI have not heard anything or seen plans in that regard. A break in diplomatic relations is not planned for now. Nor do I have indications that this is the case soon. Sometimes a break in relations complicates things more, it doesn&#8217;t solve much. The important thing for now is that Cuba stop supporting the failed Maduro regime, that is our aspiration,\u201d the State Department official told <strong>OnCuba<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although there are no plans to break relations, neither has it been publicly rejected. \u201cLet&#8217;s start by remembering that we are entering a time of fantasy. We cannot forget that we are in the middle of the election year and the positions on Cuba will be many. At first, Trump said he was going to break off relations, that they were going back to what they were before (the Barack Obama administration),\u201d Eduardo Gamarra, an analyst at the Florida International University, told <strong>OnCuba<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, \u201cout of all they have done, the strongest signals were the withdrawal of personnel from Havana and Washington. I think that in this year the possibility (of the break) is high. After all, we had no relations for 60 years and nothing has changed. We\u2019ve had them for three years and nothing has changed either.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The truth, he emphasizes, is that \u201cthe opening in Cuba continues, as Obama said, and it would be detrimental for Cuba not to have relations. If there is a break, what would it be like? A return to just having interest sections or a total breaking off of relations? If it is total, then it would be a question of considering who would give visas, remember that there are a number of mutual obligations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obligations such as the granting of 20,000 annual visas to Cubans (which has been breached by the current administration), the acceptance of the return of deportable Cubans, drug trafficking agreements, rescues at high sea, communications and postal service. And that, \u201cwithout forgetting American investments in Cuba,\u201d says Gamarra.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But the tension between both sides is perhaps what has led to the island\u2019s diplomacy to be the first to anticipate a possible break. \u201cCuba is at a time when it is being pressured because of Venezuela, so it has to position itself in that rhetorical line that relations don\u2019t mean much but the truth is that they matter a lot. There are a number of things that have bothered Washington that I think are in that rhetoric,\u201d adds the FIU analyst.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, returning to the election year, a break could have conflicting reactions. \u201cThe old people are going to be happy, but what does it mean in terms of a community that goes to Cuba every weekend? If relations are broken, how do you regulate remittances? If we get to that moment, it won&#8217;t be easy for Cuba,\u201d Gamarra said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, there are those who believe that the breaking of diplomatic relations is unlikely. \u201cI don&#8217;t see any point in withdrawing the work of an embassy there, an embassy that now (in Havana) is at the level of charg\u00e9 d\u2019affaires (while in Washington, Cuba has an ambassador),\u201d says Cuban-American university professor Arturo L\u00f3pez Levy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In his opinion, the government of the United States \u201cwill continue carrying out its activities that Cuba considers a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/cuba-usa\/cuban-foreign-minister-denounces-illegal-actions-of-u-s-em\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">violation of its soverignty<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,\u201d but it would be irrational, although with Trump you never know, to consider a breaking of diplomatic relations, he told OnCuba.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason is simple, there would not exist a necessary consensus in that regard, among other reasons because the American personnel in Havana was already reduced and \u201cI don\u2019t believe the Cuban embassy would do something to cause an interagency consensus that decides the break,\u201d he explained.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is explained because normally in Washington foreign policy decisions take into account the opinion of the various government agencies that have an interest in those relations. This is the case of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), on which the Coast Guard Service, that has been working closely with the Cuban Border Guard for decades, depends. In addition, \u201cembassies allow for maintaining a fluid communication, such as collaboration in the fight against drug trafficking, mutual security, things that were achieved with the thaw,\u201d affirmed L\u00f3pez Levy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt has been demonstrated that in American politics, internal lobbies, when there is a spirit of hostility against a country, clash with interests and well-established lines in the system concerned with security, and they (the lobbies) tend to lose in that,\u201d says the analyst referring to radical pressure groups against the links with the island.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After all, \u201cwe must remember that within the Trump administration there are people who are in favor of relations with Cuba, such as the Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue, who when he was a senator for Georgia was in favor of agricultural sales to Cuba.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think the worst is over, even if Trump were reelected. The thing was worse when there existed that triumvirate that was National Security advisor John Bolton; special advisor Mauricio Claver; and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo,\u201d pointed out L\u00f3pez Levy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The two countries broke diplomatic relations in January 1961, reestablished them as interest sections in the summer of 1977 and rose them to embassy level after the historic December 17, 2014.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Monday the director of Cuban diplomacy toward the United States, Carlos Fern\u00e1ndez de Coss\u00edo, affirmed that if the United States decides to break diplomatic relations with the island, Havana is prepared for that possibility. \u201cWe\u2019re not going to lose sleep,\u201d he said. \u201cI don&#8217;t think relations will be broken.
