“Cuba and Iran Forge Strategic Alliance Against U.S.”
Article in UM’s Cuban Affairs Journal Reveals Details

Coral Gables, Fl. - Cuba continues to cement a long-standing alliance with Iran, which includes economic and biotechnological exchanges, as well as efforts to strategically impact their mutual adversary, the United States.

This revelation is part of an article penned by research associate, Hans de Salas-del Valle, in the second issue of the on-line journal Cuban Affairs published by the University of Miami’s Institute for Cuban and Cuban-American Studies (ICCAS).

“Cuba and Iran have now entered a new stage in a bilateral relationship increasingly characterized by integrated political, economic, and technological policies and a coordinated global strategy vis-à-vis the United States,” writes de Salas. He warns that “policymakers in Washington and the European Union alike should be concerned about the implications of a Cuba-Iran alliance.”

The second issue also includes:

“Sounding a Requiem for the Lord of Misrule” by Edward Gonzalez
“A Historiography of National Reconciliation” by Marifeli Pérez-Stable
“Generations in the FAR General Officer Corps: Backgrounds, Experiences and Interests” by Frank O. Mora
"Cuba and Miami: Migration and the Future” by Sergio Díaz-Briquets
"Protestants in Cuba Today: Challenges and Problems” by Marcos Antonio Ramos
The journal, which is published on a quarterly basis, also includes book reviews and an updated chronology of events on the island for the quarter. ICCAS decided to offer the journal electronically because it provides immediate delivery and more up-to-date articles. The journal is easy to download, if readers wish to keep a hard copy.


The cost of the journal is $25 for a year’s subscription to individuals. Institutional subscriptions are $95. To subscribe to Cuban Affairs log on to www.cubanaffairsjournal.org or call 305-284-CUBA (2822).
