Obama: We Can Learn from Cuba About Human Rights - “The goal of the human rights dialogue is not for the United States to dictate to Cuba how to govern themselves,” the president went on. “Hopefully, we can learn from each other.” Human Rights Watch reports an uptick of human rights abuses in Cuba. “[S]hort-term arbitrary arrests of human rights defenders, independent journalists, and other critics have increased dramatically.” Additionally, “beatings, public acts of shaming, and the termination of employment” have been used by the Castro regime.
