He talks about the decrease in the number of dictators in Southern and Central America in the past years. He speaks about Kennedy's book 'The Strategy for Peace' which prohibits the Americans from interfering in internal affairs of any other state. Kennedy presents his views and says that he never suggested that Cuba was lost. He criticized Nixon because in his press conference in Havana in 1955, he praised the competence and stability of the Batista dictatorship.

He hopes that some day Cuba would rise if the U.S. changes its policies towards it.
