U.S. legislators of alleged Cuban origin maneuver to make the blockade, tightened by Donald Trump without major changes during the mandate of Joseph Biden, more harmful to the Antilleans.

The aforementioned congressmen are characterized by an explosive oratory, full of common and absurd terms if the purpose is to cut off the Cubans.

When a baseball team went to Miami to play in a crucial official tournament, the legislators of invoked Cuban origin together with influencers who court them presented the athletes as spies.

The same is done today by the head of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere, María Elvira Salazar, who rejected with derogatory phrases the arrival of a hundred Cuban doctors to work in the public service in Honduras.

The health mission, endorsed by agreement between the two governments, does not have, according to Salazar, the purpose of assisting the patients of various pathologies in Honduras, as authorities in Tegucigalpa reminded.

She says that the professionals in white coats are "spies and indoctrinators" representative of what she called "the socialist cancer".

The former journalist appealed to the liturgy of her congressional peers, the so-called modern slavery in Cuba, in allusion to the doctors.

Salazar stridently ignored the explanations of Honduran authorities that Cuban doctors will fill the vacuum of specialists.

The chairwoman of the Western Hemisphere Subcommittee also acts as the spearhead of a campaign to make the public opinion believe that the creation in the largest of the Antilles of more than ten thousand micro, small and medium-sized enterprises is a myth because, she claims, they are not independent from the government.

Congressman Marco Rubio, also an exponent of the most conservative anti-Cuba wing of the U.S. legislative apparatus, is on the same side.

Rubio, who is linked in the United States with the arms manufacturing consortiums, is known for demanding extreme measures against Cuba and Venezuela, and more recently he rushed to Argentina, where a right-wing government took office.

Stirring up the libel that a leaf that moves at the foot of a tree, at any latitude, responds to the interests of the government of Havana, is foolish to say the least, although it is known that nothing is casual, since they respond to the delirious purpose of cutting off the oxygen to the Cubans.
