Description

The Soviet Union and Cuba (1987) examines the thesis that Cuba acted as an extension of Soviet foreign policy or surrogate of the USSR in the Third World.

The Soviet-Cuban link is assessed in four conflicts: Angola, Ethiopia, Grenada and Nicaragua.

It is shown that Cuba is largely an autonomous actor in international relations, and that bilateral influence flows in both directions.

Thus Western reaction to Cuban and Soviet activity in the Third World is often based on misperceptions.
