CUBA PROMOTES PRIVATE BUSINESS

Dr. Gerald Horne, author, historian, researcher and professor of history at the University of Houston in Texas, returns to discuss Cuba. Cuba has announced a significant move to promote private business in an attempt to overcome economic hardships caused by US sanctions and the COVID-19 pandemic. Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel announced that the island nation will open most of the economy to private business. Some see the move as a mirror of China's successful hybrid economy that is pacing the world in expansion.
