MR.
NlVEN: Major
Guevara, in your speech to the General Assembly the day before
yesterday, you accused the United States of helping Cuba’s neighbors
prepare new aggression against her. We, in turn, have often accused
your government of abetting subversion in other Latin American
countries. Do you see any way out of this situation, any way to
improve relations?
MAJOR
GUEVARA: I think
with regards to solutions, there are solutions, and I think
there is only one. we have said repeatedly to the government of the
United States that we do not want anything but to forget us, that
they do not consider us even for good or evil.
