Washington saw Gen Vladimir Kryuchkov, deputy chairman of the KGB, among the Soviet entourage at the summit.

Cuban exiles defend immigrant merit over crime myths
Nicanor Diaz, Juana Hernandez, Julio Valcarcel, Alicia Duarte Brosius, Paul Gomez, Lala Suarez Moony, and others respond to Robert Reid’s column The Cuban problem.

They argue Cubans contributed to a thriving Miami and reject depictions of immigrants as welfare dependents, asserting pride in their American citizenship and welcoming stance of the United States.
