"...2.3 tons of cocaine...the value of the seized drug on the Ecuadorian market exceeding five million dollars."
Retail in America that value would be ~$230M. The CIA seems to be pocketing a pretty penny. Maybe Cuba can convince the Sec. of HHS, RFK, Jr., to make sugar illegal, and then smuggle it into America for, say ~$10/gram. That would solve all Cuban governments economic problems.
Fistfights in legislatures are a good sign of legislators that believe - or are well paid - in a cause. The USA used to have them happen.
Thanks!
