Big Fallout between Sweden and Cuba

[Peter CCL]

Apparently The Cuban ambassador in the UN has verbally attacked swedens foreign Minister, Mr Carl Bildt, in reply of Sweden's criticism on the situation for human rights in Cuba.

The ambassador accused Sweden for ethnic cleansing, oppression of minorities and expelling anyone who does not have the look of a Viking. Furthermore he brought up Sweden's bloody past with Viking plundering (10th century approx) and our plundering of northern Europe (17th century) . (He missed the fact that Sweden has not been at war since 1814 though)

Translated back to english: Juan Antonio Fernandez Palacios said among other things :"With his aggressive attack (Bildt) brought us back to the not so glorious days of Swedish imperialism which where filled with blood and pain. Their neighboring countries had to endure colonial slavery" This was said in the UN counsel.

Diplomatic sources report that the "diplomatic pouch " has been opened by Cuban officials several times lately.

As pointed out at a Swedish cigar forum: Is this the right time to light a Diplomaticos?

Peter, I see you understand most folks have trouble locating Sverige on the map and that Svensk have no affiliation with the Swiss......... :sign:

Not to thread jack but where are you in Sweden? I lived just outside Malmo for a year 1996 and had the pleasure of singing with Lunds Studentsångförening and attending Swedish Class in Kävlinge.

Thankfully Sweden has given us The Hellacopters (let's forget Ace of Base and ABBA).

We can then thank Norway for Turbonegro.

Our foreign minister critisised Cuba for not respecting Human Rights in an address in the UN I think it was.

Over are the days when former socialist Prime ministers visited Cuba and praised the regime. Now, finally we have a right wing leadership in this country.

Imagine our former PM even visited Kim Jong Il!! And found the little fart intelligent and charming, and said it publicly!

"Leadership" that's blasting Cuba on human rights issues, but finding Kim John Il "intelligent and charming"? That's not right wing - that's full blown Bozo!!!

The current right wing administration is criticizing Cuba, the former left wing was fraternizing with Cuba and Kim Jong Il

You are in denial!

I can say from this horizon that I actually prefer cigars from Nic and Hond before many Cubans. The quality is higher and more consistent, and I prefer the taste. They are also cheaper even if I buy them from Larry L, JR or some other US dealer and even pay occasional duties and tobacco tax.
