@d-l-denny: Thanks for providing that, although it is a bit of a tangent off the central topic.

The tensions within U.S. policy toward Cuba provide the main focus on Latin Pulse this week. The program analyzes how domestic politics in the United States continue to have an effect on the diplomatic changes in Cuba.  The program also focuses on the continuation of controversial democracy building programs from USAID, aimed at Cuba. The news segment of the program looks at the complex case in Argentina linking the country's spy agency and the murder of a special prosecutor.  The program covers the surprise reaction of the country's president this week.

The program includes in-depth interviews with:


Eric Hershberg, director of American University's Center for Latin American & Latino Studies (CLALS); and 
Sujatha Fernandes of the City University of New York (CUNY).

 Executive Producer: Rick Rockwell; 
Producer: Jim Singer; and
Production Assistant: Gabriela Canchola.
