Subject: Typical inaccuracies paragraph... innacurate.
Dear Editor,
In
your web article Mexico-Venezuela clash over oil as foreign aid,
the following paragraph:
“Typical
of the inaccuracies was a Miami Herald report that Cuba’s
future is in the hands of Hugo Chavez, not Fidel Castro’s
successor Raul Castro: “The Venezuelan president is propping
up the Cuban economy by giving it nearly 100,000 barrels of oil
a day virtually for free, according to experts.” There’s
no clarification that Venezuela is simply complying with its obligations
under a two-decades-old pact with Mexico that’s older than
Chavez’s presidency.”
It
is my understanding that Cuba and Venezuela entered into a bilateral
agreement whereby Venezuela supplies oil in exchange for Cuba’s
services (health, sports, etc.)
Nowhere
in the San Jose pact are established mechanism for exchanging
oil for pseudo slave services. In my opinion, it would be inaccurate
to affirm that the oil relation between Venezuela and Cuba is
the same as Mexico and Cuba under the San Jose pact.
I
would kindly request that you do not publish my name or e-mail.
Sincerely
yours,
