I don't think the administration wants to hear much more of this testimony from Christopher Sabatini (senior director, Policy, Council of The Americas/Americas Society). From CQ:
Even in Cuba (the one non-electoral democracy in the region) democracy activists
registered over 3,000 examples of civic resistance to the Castro regime last
year.
One might conclude that there’s too much resistance to contain, although that’s not the context he puts it in.
Or, on the other hand, the authoritarian regime may be letting off steam, lightening up.
Without talking to the Cubans who acted in resistance, we don’t know. And what fool would believe the cronies now?
