coexistence

Which is not what is happening since Bolivia is using the Yuan for trades that were previously made in USD.

It's from a brave hero that fought for Ukrainian independence from the Soviet Union in WW2 alongside Stepan Bandera, he's remembered very fondly by them today! /s

Nothing in that link shows SWIFT blocked Cuba. Quite the contrary, I’ve done a relatively exhaustive search… SWIFT has NEVER blocked Cuba. So yes… you’re lying.

Why are you so hell bent on defending the American empire against the Cuban people?

No, you haven't done a "relatively exhaustive search", if you had you would have learned that SWIFT has indeed blocked Cuba in the past.

Based in Belgium, SWIFT claims political neutrality, but has bowed to US influence in the past, blocking transactions to Cuba and Iran.

The SWIFT software manual even admits to auto flagging payments that contain the word "Cuba" even if they're not related to Cuba (the country) at all 🤣

In the MT example, it’s highly likely the payment would be one of the 10% typically stopped by a sanctions filter, triggering an investigation. This is because the word ‘Cuba’ appears in the name and address and it’s otherwise unclear where the payment is going.

In the common law of most English-speaking countries, there is no general duty to come to the rescue of another.

Demonic worldview, just because your law books used to legitimize slavery would you also practice it?

how does this factor into your assessment of the situation?

It doesn't, their tactic is just to repeat their dogmatic mantras with no material analysis.

not a peep has come out of them about the shaming they suffered during Opium wars when western nations effectively carved up China to spheres of influence

The century of humiliation is something that is mentioned by the Chinese government a lot, I'm not sure what you meant by this.
