WHAT HAPPENED IN THIS COMMITTEE?

 

 

A crisis simulation, this committee dealt with the topic of Unites States presence in Guantanomo Bay. The Cuban Cabinet engaged in a series of causes and summit meeting with the United States to solve the issue. In our scenario, Fidel Castro dies early on.  His brother, President Raul Castro, after issuing a few press releases, dies as well. Things got a little rough when the United States cabinet refused to be involved in a summit meeting of any sort, prompting Cuba to consider the possibility of war and to collect future Latin American allies. When US President Barack Obama attempted to diffuse the situation, the Cuban cabinet became even more furious.   A summit meeting was soon called. The objective of this committee was to forge an agreement between the two nations that would facilitate relations and hopefully return Guantanamo to Cuba. The committee ended with a treaty that made neither side happy.
