The administration of Enrique Peña Nieto announced on Friday that it would waive 70 percent of the $487 million in debt Cuba owes to Mexico, according to Reuters. Former Mexican president Vicente Fox, never too keen on the island’s government, doesn’t like the move.
On Sunday, he compared the Cuban government to the chupacabras, a mythical blood-sucking creature. “I don’t see why the debt ought to be forgiven,” said Fox. “Let the Cubans get to work and generate their own money…They’re normally like chupacabras. The only thing they’re looking for is someone to give them money for free.”
