Lmao let’s start with the fact that Cuba lost its sugar economy because the US started releasing plagues in our country. But yea let me not speak on how racist it is to relegate a Black Country to “a sugar plantation”. https://t.co/75LFFoHta0— mambí (@mambi26) March 26, 2021
here we have a unique case of a maoist calling cuba a "banana republic" of the soviet union because it received aid from it
I suppose it’s mildly true, that Cuba did not diversify its economy as much as it could have because they had valuable exports that were difficult to source for the eastern bloc, which is part of what made the special period so difficult, but “neo-colony?” Come on.

No western economy has ever become over reliant on primary exports. Economies like Norway and Australia are definitely super diversified.
Russia didn't lose tons of its economic diversity in the nineties transitioning its economy to primarily oil extraction, nope.
