Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
'New chapter' in US-Cuba ties
Is this part of detent, which is a word has
seldom mentioned since 1989 when the Berlin Wall came down. For the last half
century, the two neighboring countries that lay only 300 kilometers apart have
never had official diplomatic or economic exchanges. Suddenly on December 17th,
2014, both of them released their long-term captives to back their respected
homeland as a sign of normalizing the relationship.
It is also interesting to know that they’ve
been unofficially meeting in Canada and Vatican before the announcement. It
sounds like an undercover dating arrangement, doesn’t it? It is also said that
Pope Francis acted as an angel for the two.
Enjoy reading and learning how significant
and historical this new move is.
