Cuba and Santiago governance under Cuban administration debate
The text argues that differing conditions between Santiago and Manila affect U S policy in Cuba. The government disclaims territorial acquisition in Cuba and seeks to free the island while placing Cubans in control. The question of allowing Cubans to administer Santiago could set a precedent for civil government in later Cuban territory. General Garcia is expected to play a prominent role if this occurs, with Masso and his cabinet in Puerto Principe. No final determination has been made.
