Panama City, April 11 (RHC) -- The Cuban delegation to the Summit of the Peoples held in Panama City revealed details of a meeting between U.S.-paid mercenaries and officials from that government to discuss their 'marching orders' during the Civil Society Forum, that took place in thr sidelines of the Summit of the Americas.

The Cuban representatives delivered a document asserting that such meeting was proof of the servile character of the Cuban opposition groups that were accredited to participate in the Civil Society Forum.

Cubans Manuel Cuesta Morúa, Laritza Diversent and Juan Antonio Madrazo Luna, together with other members of opposition groups from Venezuela, Nicaragua, Bolivia, Ecuador and Argentina, attended a meeting with Michael Kosack and Jonathan Farrar, Undersecretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor, and the US Ambassador to Panama, respectively.

The meeting was summoned by the US officials to coordinate actions and give instructions on how to behave during the OAS events in Panama, also attended by representatives of civil society groups from Cuba.

According to the Cuban representatives, these mercenaries were told to publicly back the US policy changes towards Cuba in order to make them look like a “believable opposition”, and not lackeys of a foreign power.

Kosack and Farrar also ordered them not to back up the Miami right-wing statements, which oppose the presence of Cuba in this Summit and the process for the reestablishment of relations between the two countries.
