UNICEF: Cuba is an example in children protection
UNICEF: Cuba is an example in children protection

by Cuban Agency News, Marcos Alfonso
It is a never ending story. The US authorities don’t know what else to come up with in their efforts against Cuba.

Partners | Havana (Cuba) | 17 June 2010

The latest example of their sick manoeuvres is the inclusion of Cuba among the worst countries in terms of human trafficking in a US State Department report on this topic.

...

De la carpeta de cuero negro, despacio, mirando ambos lados y cuidándose de gente indiscreta, saca un álbum de fotos brillantes, tiradas sin dudas por un profesional de la cámara, donde una legión de chicas o chicos, según la preferencia sexual, miran con voluptuosidad, escasos de ropa y en poses provocativas.

En su catálogo, la abuela-matrona tiene de todo. Rubias, trigueñas, mulatas y negras. "Son muy jóvenes, mi hijo, pero si las quieres de 12 o 13 años, tendrás que pagar más", dice Ileana en tono maternal.

La matrona va cantando en voz baja los precios. "Una noche 20 pesos convertibles, dos lesbianas, veinte por cabeza. Lo que tengo es de primera, niñas recatadas que no son putas a tiempo completo, algunas estudiantes", aclara mientras detalla la calidad de su mercancía.

3. The post was about child protection and the article I posted was about how children aren't...
...protected.

It was on topic.

Your post, however, was not, and your harassment is really touching.
