Regime change, please: It’s time to plan for Cuba’s future leadership
Fidel Castro’s recent weird, two-hour rant in front of a hundred journalists shows that the Cuban dictator might be losing his mind. That’s good news for the people of Cuba, and is a warning for Washington to plan for a regime change on the island.
The term “regime change” is important. For it isn’t simply a change in leaders that Cuba needs: the entire regime – a 43 year-old Communist Party apparatus that controls every aspect of daily life over every single citizen – has to go.
The US can’t repeat the mistakes made in post-communist transitions from Nicaragua to Russia, in which the instruments of force and intimidation were allowed to survive the regimes they served. The time to start planning is now.
