2. Exactly how it had to be handled

President Joe Biden expressed “our support for the Cuban people and their cry for freedom and relief from the tragic consequences of the pandemic and the decades of repression and economic suffering to which they have been subjected by Cuba’s authoritarian regime.” He added, “the Cuban people are acting with courage in claiming their fundamental and universal rights” and called for the “Cuban regime to listen to its people and attend to their needs in this vital moment instead of enriching itself.”

Thank you President Biden for calling out the repressive Cuban Govt.

The change has to come from the people themselves. US is here to assist the people where allowed.

Pressure continues to be put upon the current Leader by President Biden, & THAT is how the oppressive regime will change from within.

As the US commits its diplomacy & support, the people of Cuba demand change.

It has been decades in the making.
