It happened in Cancún where 32 Latin American and Caribbean countries were meeting. At a private lunch, the group witnessed an unseemly encounter between Alvaro Uribe and Hugo Chávez. Speaking off the record as is customary in these gatherings, Uribe called on Chávez to end Venezuela&#8217;s hindrance of trade [...]]]></description>

Until June 30, Spain holds the presidency of the European Union. Madrid has always taken the lead on Cuba, and so it has been since the Socialists won the 2004 election. Under José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, Spain prodded the EU to lift sanctions imposed after the Black Spring of [...]]]></description>

Politics is swirling everywhere. Such are the ways of democracies, especially when oppositions come alive and defeat or threaten incumbents.
On Jan. 17, Chileans elected Sebastián Piñera their president, the first time in 52 years that a conservative won at the polls. It&#8217;s tempting to cast his victory as Right [...]]]></description>

Nicaragua se acerca al precipicio. En 2006, Daniel Ortega se vistió de oveja para llevar a cabo su campaña, pero sacó su lobo interior una vez que llegó el poder. Se sumó al ALBA, la alianza de autócratas fundada por Venezuela, viajó a Irán, Cuba, Libia, [...]]]></description>

Cuba&#8217;s problems can&#8217;t be addressed under the leadership&#8217;s passé reformism. Raúl Castro is neither Gorbachev nor Deng Xiaoping, both of whom thought outside the box while in power. He is stuck in the old mold of market socialism: a tinker here, a nudge there, even though Europe&#8217;s 1989 should [...]]]></description>

Nicaragua is nearing the brink. In 2006 Daniel Ortega campaigned in sheep&#8217;s clothing but freed his inner wolf once inaugurated. He joined ALBA, Venezuela&#8217;s alliance of autocrats, traveled to Iran, Cuba, Libya and Algeria and used then-U.S. Ambassador Paul Trivelli as a punching bag. The Sandinista machinery of clientelism, [...]]]></description>

Along the Jersey side on the Hudson River, New York City stands vibrant if now forever scarred. Between 1892 and 1954, 12 million immigrants entered the United States through Ellis Island, where a must-see museum renders tribute to their hopes and the country that blessed them.
Union City welcomed immigrants [...]]]></description>

The Obama administration may be going down a dead end. In an Oct. 13 meeting with Spanish Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, Obama said: &#8220;Tell Raúl that if he doesn&#8217;t take steps, I won&#8217;t be able to go further.&#8221; A few days later the Spanish foreign minister met [...]]]></description>

Cincuenta años de desconfianza en las relaciones entre Washington y La Habana no se superan tan rápidamente.
Estados Unidos y Cuba están dando pequeños pasos para el acercamiento. Desde que el presidente Obama llamó a un &#8220;nuevo comienzo&#8221;, su gobierno ha permitido el envío de remesas y [...]]]></description>
