Abstract

The article explores Cuba's complex relationships with the Soviet Union and Eastern European states from 1959 to 1991, shedding light on previously overlooked aspects of this history. Through extensive research, the author reveals a nuanced and often adversarial dynamic between the various actors involved. The text highlights Cuba's evolving foreign policy activism, economic dependence on the Soviet bloc, and military involvement in Nicaragua and Grenada, offering a more balanced understanding of Cuba's role in the socialist world during the Cold War.
