February 3, 1968	Embassy of the GDR in the Republic of Cuba, 'Draft of a Concept for the Plenum of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba from 24 to 26 January 1968' This document provides an analysis of the ideological and political developments in Cuba during the late 1960s, highlighting tensions within the Communist Party of Cuba (CPC) and its strained relations with other socialist countries. It emphasizes that Cuba, under Fidel Castro, was unwavering in its revolutionary agenda despite setbacks such as Che Guevara's death, seeking to export its revolution while distancing itself from Marxist-Leninist orthodoxy. Domestically, the Cuban leadership prioritized economic stabilization and internal political consolidation, using military-like methods to address supply issues and promote agricultural output. The document also critiques the CPC's suppression of dissent, exemplified by its handling of the so-called "micro-fraction," and warns of worsening relations between Cuba and its socialist allies, particularly the USSR and the GDR, as the Cuban leadership pursued an independent, "Fidelist" ideological line. This document summary was generated by an artificial intelligence language model and was reviewed by a Wilson Center staff member.
