El fin de la asociación soviético-cubana

In 1991 the remarkable association that the Soviet Union had with Cuba for thirty years came to an end. This was not primarily due to changes in Cuba or the United States, but to internal events that occurred in the Soviet Union. This had been the lifeline for Castro and Cuba, which Moscow regarded as one of its major political triumphs after World War II. Both parties had frequently pledged political loyalty to each other. To understand how and why this seemingly indestructible association ended, it is necessary to analyze the link between bilateral relations and Soviet internal politics.
