[b]January 26th, 1950.
El Capitolio, Havana, Cuba.[/b]

The cessation of trade with the United States, although inevitable, was disastrous on any course. With their closest trading partner deploying an entire embargo on Cuban products, the economy instantly went into a recession. Despite trade with nations such as Canada and other nearby minor powers continuing, Fidel Castro's advisers told him that he could expect his exports to be cut in half. In addition, a large amount of the nation's machinery and technical products came from the United States, a concept that would send them back several years technologically. 

Inside of the Capital, Fidel Castro sat behind the pen once more. Although the war was not one of force, Cuba's light at the end of the tunnel was swiftly dimming. After hours of deliberating with both himself and his subordinates, he had figured out an itinerary of letters that must be sent to ensure Cuba's future. One would detail his visit to the East German Republic, a nation that was in the midst of similar strife of his own, second was a letter to the U.S.S.R.. However much he was afraid to pick a side, he felt that the Capitalists were forcing his hand much earlier than normal. Lastly would be an internal memo. Undoubtedly, American intelligence was working around the clock to infiltrate his regime and perhaps even take him out of the picture by force. Picking up his pen, he began to write out the first of his letters. Luckily, he would start off on a joyous note, being invited to celebrations in East Germany.

From: Fidel Castro

I am honored to have received your letter of invitation to East Germany, perhaps where we shall be able to settle out terms of cooperation between our two nations. I feel that this would be a very large step towards unifying our people for the advancement of our mutual cause. In the coming months, I would be more than honored to visit your great nation, though unfortunately at the time being I must tend to my fight in Cuba. As we speak, American warships surround our island; my spies reporting additional military presence in the American naval base off my Eastern Coast. In the mean time, I would like to negotiate terms of trade agreements, mutually beneficial to both parties. American embargoes have crippled my economy, pulling our government's financial ability back severely. We will be able to work out trade agreements in the future, if this will suit the needs of your nation.

With Regards,

From: Fidel Castro

Firstly, I would like to take the time to thank you for reading this letter and taking the time from your affairs to do so. I would like to introduce myself, I am Fidel Castro, Prime Minister of the Republic of Cuba. In the last few years, the proletariat have rebelled against the Imperialist Occupation of my lands, eventually succeeded on behalf of socialism. Unfortunately, the United States, not forty miles away from my shores, have been belligerent to say the least. Following the exodus of Capitalist supporters from our nation, word has come back from my intelligence sources that they are being "rounded up" for something big. I fear that my people will soon be tested, with the corrupt American government soon attempting to seize power from the people of Cuba. This is where I appeal for the support of yourself, and the Warsaw pact. A beacon of hope and justice to the modern world, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republic's support will both boost moral and ensure our people's principals are held true for a long, glorious future. I understand that your administration is busy managing its own affairs, and we will appreciate any sort of support that can be allowed. Once again, I thank you for your dedication to reading this letter, and hope that you will help the Cuban people advance their goals of achieving uncontested independence from American oppression.

With Regards,
Fidel Castro.[/quote]

[quote]Memo to all Heads of Departments,
From: Fidel Castro

We knew that this day would come comrades, the day when our strength and resolve is tested for the advancement of our cause. The American pigs have decided to cut their ties, an act of aggression that we cannot allow to go unchecked. At this point, we will be forcefully deporting any American citizens from the country, letting them row themselves back to their pathetic mainland. If a non-citizen cannot provide documents upon arrest, they are to be arrested indefinitely, processed as enemies of the state. We are to let the Americans know that we will not be cast aside so easily, and we are to show this at the steps of their Guantanamo Bay military base.

Checkpoints are to be set up at the line of the military base, with Cuban personnel manning the roads in and out of the base on twenty four hour watch. Anyone seen attempting to enter Cuba via this base will be detained indefinitely, once again processed as an enemy of the State. All currently active militia personnel and military servicemen are ordered to be on alert, checkpoints set up on major highways to ensure that each traveler has documents and are not moving contraband items. In the coming weeks, our resolve will be tested further. But we will emerge stronger, the people of Cuba having won the fight that they had battled in for so long. Each and every law abiding Cuban citizen is instrumental to our success, and they are to be treated like so.
