This one lady alone, is what is needed to unmask the USA to the world...she is so well-spoken, and knowledgeable...·Cuba is on a fast track now, having joined China's.BRI...
uh.
BRICS is a force to be reckoned with.

Hands off Cuba 🇨🇺!!! What an articulate women and it’s so obvious to her what USA foreign policy aims are I wish our people understood
👏👏👏I agree!
See how pale her skin is? She is terrified of the sun, she refuses to get tan because she is a complete racist ☝️

I visited Cuba in 2017. It is a wonderful country. The country, although poor, the people are happy. The US is an evil nation that has punished Cuba for more than 50 years. Cuba is a great socialist country. They have free education, medical etc. The government looks after the people. The sanctions imposed by the US caused the shortage of medicines which led to the death of thousands of Cubans (including children). The UN & the world must condemn the actions taken by the US against Cuba. Cuba is no threat to US. The US has many warships in the South China Sea, threatening China. I hope China or Russia send warships to the Caribbean & we shall see how the US reacts. The world must get together to stop the US bullying small nations.
The USA created the UN, The IMF and the World Bank. The UN has placed sanctions on every country the US and NATO have destroyed and left bleeding. What do these 3 institutions have in common?
@@phildazz They're all Western Imperialist instruments, they are tools used by the US to expand their policies and do all sorts of interventions on other countries.
On hindsight, you can look back into what the late Fidel Castro and Che Guevarra were fighting for. They weren't as BAD as the US and the West portrayed them to be.
…Even Hitler himself would be horrified by the crimes conmmited by the US since 1959 against Cuba & it’s People and in Central America…

Very effective Cuban official in countering propaganda and denouncing the blockade against her country. Great interview!
American leaders and the west wont leave anyone on the planet alone to live in peace-even the earth has had enough of them
Thats right because if you’re living peacefully it means you aren’t giving the US, the ghouls that own the corporations that run and own the USA, what it wants and that’s everything. The pathology of wanting everything beyond all possible reason. Cuba and their revolution is such a brilliant inspiration and miracle, they refused to give in and remained successful even after the USSR was destroyed by that same devil. ✊🏻

I really fall in love with Cuba for many reasons, their resiliency, their health and education systems, their humbleness and friendly nature, and the list goes on and on. Thank you Rania and Johana; Break Through practices a balanced and real journalism!

In light of the circumstances, compare Cuba to Haiti, Jamaica, or the Dominican Republic. It seems Socialism has its merits.
And you still think the US really cares about human rights ?
Now, they put into trash their own people..
Yes a few million ppl here in HK believe US cares about human rights 😮
Thank you again for your most authentic journalism, BreakThrough News and Rania Khalek! I am in full solidarity with Cuba. Personally speaking, I yearn for global socialism and solidarity.
I yearn for national sovereignty .
US foreign policy doesn't change no matter who the president is. The world gets to say this, not Americans themselves.
Know That I Add A Reply!!
The only way to change is to nuked the Evil Empire snake America
BUT , it will have to ! We can learn about public Health and Education for ALL from Cuba which has survived an illegal and murderous embargo ! Cuba is among the safest country on the Continent , including Costa Rica ! The US always wanted to put their hands on Cuba from Spain but the Cubans resisted , therefore the US , who INVADED the island as their war of independence was ending , sent as embassadors to Cuba : the mafia and the CIA to mount the industries of prostitution ,of drugs , of gambling which served to enrich their Battista and Sponsors! Cuba’ s closest neighbor is maintained in a terrible state with a terrible insecurity , kidnapping and killings by gangs armed with US most letal weapons worth more than 2 months’ work for most people living there ! The greedy and RACIST oligarchs who have no empathy for anything but money and billions of it ( Which they will take with them to try to bribe maybe GOD when he will call them for their last Judgement ? ) MUST loose one day , their grip on our NATION !

The President change but the chair stays the same.
Absolutely brilliant interview, of a brilliant woman. Thank you
In my earlier days, when i was between 75 and 85 years old (Now I am 90), I found Cuba not only to be the safest and friendliest vacation destination, much better than other Central American, US American and other Caribbean Island destinations. I admired there determination to live though the American blockade ad frequently donate what we could afford to . Some medical supplies, clothing and money. I have recommended Cuba as the best vacation destination - unfortunately, at my age now I can't travel much anymore. The pandemic did not help much either. I wish the Cuban people the very best for the future
That is SO Sweet, thanks for Sharing.
😅❤💯🙏
God Bless ❤
Well said. Cuba is in my heart..deep deep inside, I always admired the Cuban people and all they have achieved.
Love from Bulgaria and from Australia. Long live Socialism.
Fantastic coverage of what’s going on in Cuba. Great job. Keep it up, BreakThrough News!
"A SPEAKER FOR JUSTIFICATION!!" IN
THE UNITED NATIONS...PLEASE????
We love Cuba.
Damn, what a woman! Beautiful interview
Another excellent interview! BreakThrough has been killing it 🔥
Excellent interview Rania. Your guest is intelligent, knowledgeable, articulate, honest and frank. I enjoyed the entire episode. Keep up the good work and best wishes.
Thank you for being so straightforward and informative and I love the Cuban spirit. Aluta continua🇳🇦
Well done, Rania!! Cuba's story needs to be told, good on you, Johana Tablada has a lot to tell.... Lets hope someone's listening??...
What a comprehensive and totally devastating answer to the question of how & why the USA acts so disgracefully!
sanctions =economic warfare
¡Bravo Johana! You are so clear and to the point, ¡Viva Cuba y toda su gente!
This lady is incredibly intelligent. Very well spoken too.
I love how she speaks about Cuba and Africa’s friendly relationship with each other. ❤️ she’s right, they ARE the homeland of so many Cubans, and just in general, the world at large.
And of course here in the US, a lot of rhetoric is centered around “how terrible Cuba is” because our politicians and big companies would no longer be able to make money off of the lives of its own people ( and that of other countries citizens) if they “allowed” us to know that a socialist system could not only thrive, but help people to thrive and live, have affordable living and wages, healthcare and schooling. So they try as hard as they can to demonize other countries systems that actually are equal and free.
You're RIGHT about everything You Said. When I visited Hungary, I was Surprised to learn that their Children can choose to learn MUSIC for FREE and Sports as an extracurricular activity after school to keep them healthy and occupied, Paid by the State. I was in Shock!!! I went to a FREE MUSIC CONCERT, and I was very impressed with the Seeing the Children Playing the Piano, Chelo, Violins, and So many other Music Instruments like PROS, and Singing Opera right in front of my eyes, and they were So Professional, and it didn't Cost them Not even a Penny. And very well-mannered kids, Not the foul mouths and Rude Kids that We have in America.
This is superb young lady. You have spoken the whole truth. One day US will be held accountable.
This is the best thing I've seen so far in 2022
Congratulations Rania
I'm glad to know so many people from USA went to Cuba, even if it lasted just a short time. This means there ARE people in USA who know first-hand what it's like there. I went with a special delegation for a week & absolutely loved being there. Viva Cuba!
Great interview! Thank you Rania Khalek and Johana Tablada❤
The cuban people are so resiliant, and they are to be commended. Well done, and may God continue to bless and sustain your people. Bravo Cuba!!
This is a brilliant Diplomat and enlightening intervention. Please, do give us some more. Thank you very soooooo much.
BreakThrough does it again! Awesome interview, Rania.
Ok I definitely want to go to Cuba.
Amazing Interview, both ladies have a strong and beautiful heart... Stay strong Cuba!!!..
Respects to Cubans!!!
Wonderful lady!!
She said it right "In Cuba they Get an Education" Debt FREE. Ouch!!!
Wow! What an amazing woman! Cubans should speak up and teach the world more. Very refreshing!
Good job. Keep the truth alive. 👍 👍
This lady has her facts upfront more power to her and Cubans!!😊
incredible interview. cannot be overstated how important the work you all at Breakthrough News are doing. well done & solidarity with the Cuban Revolution
Enough is enough! Hands off Cuba. Give back Guatanamo!
She knows her stuff! Second time watching this. Love it!
Great job Cuba in enduring the shocking & disgusting tactics adopted by the Evil Empire & yet somehow finding ways to succeed. Rania should have Johana back again to keep us update.
So Smart Cuban 👌👌👌👌👌
Watching this on Che's Birthday. Solidarity forever with the Cuban people.
Interviews like this make me want to learn Spanish and emigrate to Cuba. I'd miss snow, but I honestly think I'd have much better mental health.
You most likely would...
Stay strong! Your pain will not be forever. The predators have likely been salivating to see demise of independent minded leaders everywhere. Eritrea is one of the victims, and we stand in solidarity with the Cuban people. #NoMore
Unilateral coercive blockade is certainly a crime against humanity.
This lady is 🔥 Love it!
Agreed.
this is a world leader. educated on history not emotional and rational. also honest and direct.
Is it normal to feel sad and angry when hearing this lady? Not at the lady of course, but about what she says. This is so important, especially for someone who lives in a little bubble called the west.
So informative and educational,refreshing,powerful interview.One time while ago,Olympian champion
exceptional sportsman Mr. Juantorena were the bright Star of Cuba.Thank You Ladies.
Much respect Rania for the work you do by exposing the deed state
This women spiting truth nothing but the truth. She has lot of energy though it flows through her veins 😁😁😁
I just laughed my lungs out
She's so funny and I love her
Cuba has been the giant country when it comes to training doctors around the world
My cousin is one of the doctor trained in Cuba and many other African doctors
It has produced millions of doctors
Excellent reality narrative of Cuba!!Thank you for this presentation!
I'm in love with that woman. Great interview rhania.
Excellent interview, very informative!
Thank you for this interview.....Wonderful to hear from such an intelligent knowledgeable woman......finally from Cuba point of view !
incredible interview thank you for showing the truth
Thank you for bringing this speaker. She is very knowledgeable and intelligent.
. What a lovely genuine kind person is this Cuban foreign policy diplomat is. God bless Cuba, Stay strong too, CUba.
Brilliant and articulate woman!!! It is great to see people like her defend the sovereignty of ALL Global South nations!!! VIVA CUBA
impresionante! impressive! thank you both!
This lady's a good person. Cuba has really made her a strong good human being. If this is the case, sanctions made Cuban people to have humanity in their hearts.
…Thanks Rihanna… Great 👍 Information..🌹🌹
Ho very well said about Cubas presence on Africa. “Not to look for mg of diamonds” ❤️
What a breath of fresh air. A spoke person totally on the ball. Speaking of tangible, point after point . And personally full of life. Che would be proud of her .
Things are changing, nothing stays the same, hold on tight.
a moralistic/humanistic socialistic level of thoughts... guest speaker, please accept my bows my respects... thank you so much to breakthrough news...
Amazing interview. I live in the UK and didn’t know any of this. I knew America was a bully, but this is disgusting and shameful. I wish all Americans knew this, then I hope things would change. Good like to Cuba, hold strong and don’t let them bow you. Hopefully the new multipolar world, offered by Russia and China will help Cuba reach its full potential. Cuba is amazing.
Invite her again
there are many cubans studying in China
I would love to visit Cuba one day. Friends have told me that the people are among the world's friendliest. Much respect from New Zealand
I love this woman! Great discussion. She really knows her stuff.
My goodness these women are fantastic. The truth is painful therapy. Thanks Comrades. :)
Hats off Johana....and Raina
America leave us all alone sort out your own sick sad sorry mess
Make the world a happy place
Choose leaders with brains
May the true and living God deliver Cuba from operation and depression- better must come one day
Cuba needs invite Russia to establish a military base (the Biden/ US claims a country should be be allowed to select who they choose to establish bi-lateral agreements:ukraine). Then join China’s BRI along with the Caribbean. If the Biden/US claims Ukraine can choose its partners then so should Cuba
💯❤
UN must ask US including EU to remove unconditionally ALL economic sanctions imposed on Cuba, after all how many violent attacks Cuba has committed on the US. This has gone too long and unnecessary and inhunane treatnent on the Cuban people. Cuba is NOT an extension of the US.
Jamaica has been asking for year ! Now an agenda is about to be pushed there. Let’s see!
Fantastic, Rania and guest, that was totally uplifting 😊
Madame rania khaled god bless you for breakthrough news.
It is ironic that more and more youngsters are being drawn to socialism, even the petty bourgeoisie class as they are not getting the jobs they aspired for.
Excellent!
This is a master class for American high school students
I stand with Cuba❤
truth is beyond beautiful, viva la Libertad
As promised, this follows well the interview with Helen Yaffe that Rana did on January 11. I am looking forward for the next episodes on Cuba. Congrats.
Stand strong, Cuba! This woman is well spoken, and as I listened to her describe how the US has afflicted and gaslighted Cuba internationally, it came to me how astounding it is that Black Americans have asserted themselves to the degree that they have in the US and still fight despite not having another nation to run to for protection! Literally fighting a Babylonian régime inside of Babylon. God, continue to help us.
Many thanks Rania. ❤
WOW!!
Bravo, Cubans. You never kowtow to the Evil Empire which will collapse in time.
Really impressed! Rania Khalek you really know who to talk to and what about. Excellent interview! Good questions that kept your profile low while stimulating an enthusiastic and informative talk from Johana Tablada. Just Love Cuba! - Cuba, Vietnam and Mohammed Ali - I celebrate them all as the real heroes of 20th Century History who stood up to US Imperialism and WON - DECISIVELY. I'm getting another urge to burn American and Israeli flags - quick, give me some matches!
Well done Raina for your excellent journalism, we hope more great people like you shed light on the reality of harsh sanctions, god bless Cubans for their strong resilience in withstanding these unfair treatments effecting the average person. The world is shifting to a new order where wars and economic threats are not tolerated for development hence the move towards Asian diplomacy.
Thank you on the interview with
Johana one year back which I came across only today. It was very informative. I raise my hat to her precise but elaborative explanation.
Hands off Cuba✊👏
best wishes from Indonesia..
God bless Cuba!
Excellent
