POR EMELYN HERASME<\/b><\/p>\n

Las islas del Caribe sufren hoy lo que Virgilio Pi\u00f1era denunci\u00f3 con amarga precisi\u00f3n: \u201cla maldita circunstancia del agua por todos lados\u201d. El mar que abraza es tambi\u00e9n muro, el horizonte que promete libertad es cadena perpetua. Rodeadas por todas partes, las islas viven en una fragilidad eterna, expuestas al embate de los vientos, a la furia de los huracanes, al aislamiento que ahoga sue\u00f1os y a la dependencia que dicta destinos desde lejos.<\/p>\n

Nuestra regi\u00f3n de mares turquesa y ritmos eternos enfrenta ahora una tormenta silenciosa que no llega con vientos huracanados, sino con una orden ejecutiva firmada por Donald Trump el pasado 29 de enero. Washington  dice que es una medida contra el \u201cGobierno de Cuba\u201d lo que en realidad es un golpe expansivo que amenaza con asfixiar no solo a la isla, condenada por el agua que la cerca, sino a toda una regi\u00f3n del Caribe ya fr\u00e1gil y vulnerable.<\/p>\n

La orden declara una emergencia nacional por la supuesta \u201camenaza inusual y extraordinaria\u201d que representa Cuba para la seguridad de Estados Unidos. Con base en leyes como la IEEPA, impone aranceles a cualquier pa\u00eds que suministre petr\u00f3leo a la isla, afectando directamente a Venezuela y M\u00e9xico, y generando ondas de choque en el fr\u00e1gil equilibrio energ\u00e9tico caribe\u00f1o.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

En Cuba, el corte de combustible significar\u00e1 apagones m\u00e1s prolongados, hospitales al l\u00edmite y familias que ver\u00e1n empeorada su lucha diaria por lo b\u00e1sico. Pero el impacto no se detiene en La Habana: el encarecimiento del petr\u00f3leo y los mayores controles mar\u00edtimos elevar\u00e1n los costos de vida en Rep\u00fablica Dominicana, Jamaica, Hait\u00ed y a las Antillas Menores que dependen de rutas compartidas.<\/p>\n

La hipocres\u00eda es evidente. Estados Unidos castiga a naciones por comerciar con Cuba mientras mantiene relaciones comerciales fluidas con reg\u00edmenes autoritarios cuando le conviene. Esta selectividad lejos de \u201cdefender\u201d la democracia, esto refuerza un orden hemisf\u00e9rico donde la soberan\u00eda de los pa\u00edses peque\u00f1os solo vale si se alinea con los intereses de Washington.<\/p>\n

El Caribe vive de la interdependencia: puertos de tr\u00e1nsito, reexportaci\u00f3n de combustibles, remesas y la cooperaci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica cubana que ha salvado innumerables vidas en toda la regi\u00f3n. Parafraseando a Silvio Rodr\u00edguez, Cuba sin bloqueo ser\u00eda un pa\u00eds a\u00fan m\u00e1s generoso y solidario. Sin embargo, esta nueva orden genera un sobre-cumplimiento preventivo: bancos cerrar\u00e1n cuentas, empresas evitar\u00e1n rutas y programas de salud conjuntos se paralizar\u00e1n por miedo a sanciones secundarias.<\/p>\n

Miles de familias caribe\u00f1as ya separadas por la migraci\u00f3n ver\u00e1n c\u00f3mo la crisis cubana intensifica el \u00e9xodo. J\u00f3venes que sue\u00f1an con un futuro mejor tendr\u00e1n m\u00e1s barreras, mientras el aumento de costos energ\u00e9ticos golpear\u00e1 a los m\u00e1s pobres: madres que no podr\u00e1n cocinar, estudiantes sin luz para estudiar, comunidades enteras al borde del colapso.<\/p>\n

Esta pol\u00edtica, lejos de debilitar a un gobierno, castiga a pueblos enteros. Refuerza una l\u00f3gica imperial que trata al Caribe como patio trasero y que ignora la estabilidad regional que depende de la cooperaci\u00f3n, no de la coerci\u00f3n. La vulnerabilidad hist\u00f3rica de la regi\u00f3n, huracanes, deuda, cambio clim\u00e1tico, no resiste m\u00e1s agresiones externas.<\/p>\n

El Caribe no puede permitirse la fragmentaci\u00f3n. Los pa\u00edses de CARICOM, CELAC y la OEA deben rechazar esta escalada y defender la soberan\u00eda energ\u00e9tica y comercial colectiva. La cooperaci\u00f3n Sur-Sur, especialmente la solidaridad m\u00e9dica cubana, ha sido un faro; hoy necesita ser protegida.<\/p>\n

No dejemos a Cuba sola. Su dolor es nuestro dolor; su asfixia amenaza nuestra propia respiraci\u00f3n. La regi\u00f3n debe alzar una voz unitaria contra esta pol\u00edtica que, en nombre de la seguridad estadounidense, pone en convulsi\u00f3n a millones de caribe\u00f1os.<\/p>\n

Es hora de elegir. O aceptamos ser peones en el tablero de una potencia extranjera, o levantamos juntos un Caribe soberano, solidario y libre. La historia nos juzgar\u00e1 por lo que hagamos hoy. No seamos c\u00f3mplices del silencio. Recordemos nuestra profunda vocaci\u00f3n, la que resuena en el himno dominicano: \u00a1siervos de nuevo, jam\u00e1s!<\/p>\n
