In Cuba, new purges at the top of the state. The economic situation on the island is so catastrophic that these dismissals hardly change the situation.
All were replaced by other “comrades ”, unknown to the general public. The fate of Alejandro Gil has not been mentioned, but it recalls those of the vice-president of the Council of State, Carlos Lage, responsible for economic reforms in the 1990s. The two men were victims of a purge in 2009, when Raul Castro removed them from office.
