    I don’t really understand why someone would want to emigrate from Cuba to Russia in the first place, and certainly not die in a war for the privilege.

      People are leaving Cuba for Haiti (not many, but some), others for Surinam, Nicaragua and Guyana. The only point is to get out, it almost doesn’t matter the destination

      Believe it or not Cuba is worse off than Russia. The American embargo has decimated the island. It is not easy to leave, but they will have a better life literally anywhere they can go. I’m cuban. Trust me. In a strange way, I do hope some poor cuban kid does go to the war, and does kill an American volunteer. And then finally Americans will consider this pointless embargo and it’s ramifications.

          Yes. I’m not sure if you know what reading comprehension is, but start with Dr. Seuss books and try figuring out things like “does Sam I Am like green eggs and ham” and “how many red fish, how many blue fish”. Then after you’ve grasped that a little better come on back and have a conversation with the adults. We will be waiting.

            Thank you for advocating for the murder of volunteers from my country serving Ukraine and acting like a child when confronted about it. I’m sure me and other users’ opinion of your country has improved significantly and are more open to renegotiating embargoes.

              You couldn’t tell me one thing about Cuba without googling it. I’m not exactly worried or even at all interested in what the average under-educated and geogphically illiterate American thinks… about anything. But thanks for… whatever it was you think you did with this response. Wasn’t anywhere near as meaningful as you thought it was when you typed it.
