Episode 1 Part 2: What if the Cuban regime’s biggest export isn’t cigars or tourism… but people?

Episode 2 - What happens when a regime’s influence extends far beyond its borders?

In this episode of Infinite War, legendary Cuban-American Tony Costa recounts his life in pre-revolutionary Cuba and exposes how the Castro regime transformed the island into a repressive, profit-driven state. He discusses mass confiscations, Cuba’s military and medical deployments abroad, human and labor trafficking, and the rise of GAESA as a centralized economic power. Costa contrasts Cuba’s lost prosperity with its current corruption and humanitarian crisis, explains how the regime markets itself abroad, and argues for a return to free markets, property rights, and political freedom to restore Cuba’s future. The interview combines first-hand experience, historical context, and urgent warnings about Cuba’s ongoing threat to regional stability and human rights.
