Divers milieux r\u00e9alistes et mod\u00e9r\u00e9s \u00e0 Washington font grand cas du rapport r\u00e9alis\u00e9 par le s\u00e9nateur Richard Lugar, un r\u00e9publicain mais un mod\u00e9r\u00e9 lui-m\u00eame, sur la politique d’embargo US contre Cuba. Le rapport de Lugar examine d’un il tr\u00e8s critique la politique US vis-\u00e0-vis de Cuba dans le cadre rigide de l’embargo que les USA imposent \u00e0 ce pays depuis un demi-si\u00e8cle (47 ans pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tLe site de la radio NPR, notamment, donne des indications sur ce rapport, ce 23 f\u00e9vrier<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abThe senior Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee says U.S. policy toward Cuba has not worked to bring democracy to the island and he is recommending an overhaul.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbIn a report due to be distributed this week, Sen. Richard Lugar (R-IN) says recent leadership changes in both countries have created an opportunity to rethink a complicated relationship, which he says is marked by misunderstanding and suspicion. One of the key policy overhauls Lugar’s report calls for is lifting tight restrictions on travel and remittances to Cuba that were imposed by the Bush administration in 2003.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbBut Steve Clemons, with the New America Foundation, says Lugar’s report is a sharp indictment of nearly five decades of failure in trying to shift Havana’s behavior through sanctions and embargoes. I think the … thing about the Lugar report is he said 47 years of failure, that embargos can work in some cases as they did in apartheid in South Africa, but there’s no one who can look at the U.S.-Cuba relationship and say this has succeeded in any way, shape or form, Clemons says.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbLugar is not recommending lifting the embargo, but he does say the embargo gives Cuba a convenient scapegoat for its economic problems.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tSteve Clemons, de The Washington Note<\/em>, est cit\u00e9 dans le texte de NPR. Comme on le voit par ailleurs, sur son site en diverses occasions ces derniers jours et notamment le 21 f\u00e9vrier<\/a> o\u00f9 il fut l’un des premiers \u00e0 annoncer en d\u00e9tails le rapport de Lugar, Clemons joue un r\u00f4le important dans ce qui doit \u00eatre consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme une offensive de certains milieux washingtoniens pour modifier radicalement la politique d’embargo contre Cuba.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tSi l’on consid\u00e8re l’influence de Clemons, qui s’est renforc\u00e9e avec l’arriv\u00e9e de l’administration Obama comme celle d’une voix mod\u00e9r\u00e9e et r\u00e9aliste importante pour les questions de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 nationale, on peut envisager qu’il s’agit d’une tentative s\u00e9rieuse pour modifier une politique totalement fig\u00e9e. La politique cubaine des USA est compl\u00e8tement l’otage des repr\u00e9sentants activistes de la communaut\u00e9 cubaine de Floride, essentiellement faite de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s anticastristes, qui p\u00e8sent d’un poids disproportionn\u00e9e dans le parti r\u00e9publicain et influencent \u00e9galement le parti d\u00e9mocrate. Les causes de ce poids et de cette influence sont notamment \u00e9lectorales, mais \u00e9galement dues \u00e0 des connexions diverses de ces milieux activistes avec divers groupes et politiques activistes des USA dans divers domaines, dont certains ill\u00e9gaux. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
