What impelled me to venture writing a Blog was the disappointment left by the end of the intellectual controversy of January 2007... about our encounters with censorship and dogmatism...

An international accord protecting Free Expression was signed on 28 February, 2008, by Cuba's current Foreign Minister Felipe Pérez Roque, the Committee to Protect Journalists said.
