Congrats, UR! 
DDR
After the US-American invasion of Cuba, a Socialist brother state, the governments of the Warszaw Pact have decided to react diplomatically.
From this day on there´ll be a general embargo on the US as long as they occupy Cuba. Participants of that embargo are the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, DDR, Hungaria, Romania, Bulgaria and N Korea; Poloxia and China have also been invited to join.
Furthermore, any Cuban citizen may receive shelter in the Warszaw Pact countries. The UN has been adressed with a quest for retaliation.
In other news, this year even less counter-revolutionary capitalist spies have fled the country. Government says it´s all a matter of "attention" those criminals are receiving now. The price for the newly establish aura of security is low, only a tiny little portion of freedom for the good of Socialism. Most people don´t even notice it...

To: NATO
From: United States
(SECRET)
We now plea to you, members of NATO. The glorious United States, and it's free people need your help. The United States of America needs your help in every way. We need more ships to destroy and submarines to banish the Communist Soviet pinkos from waters near Cuba. It severly limits our power, if we have to constantly worry about threats from the sea. We need troops to penetrate the Communist rebels that run throughout Cuba. And we need more planes to bomb the Communists all that way back to Soviet land. We are desperate. We need your help, and we need it soon!
To: Neutral Nations
From: United States
The iron curtain has fallen, and the iron hammer has begun to drop upon us. We need to rally together and protect the free man. This is a formal invitation to join NATO, and defeat the Communists.
To: Middle East
From: USA
We are in no way giving Nuclear aid to Israel. The United States discourages all association with nuclear activities, and the only reason we continue to build nuclear weapons, is to make sure MAD stays in effect, and Soviet Russia does not threaten to destroy the world.
To: Communist Nations
From: USA
We are pulling out of Cuba. The United States does not have enough to deal with the general hostility of the population, and the embargo has hurt the United States economy. If you could lift your ban on us now, please.
ORDERS--
(SECRET!!)
The main objective of the Cuban mission has changed. Only the highest trained troops will now be fighting. The forces will now be involced in assassinations of Cuban communist leaders. The search is on for Fidel Castro. He needs to be caught, and as much pressure as the US is now applying to capture Osama, we need to apply that much pressure to find Castro. The Air Force should be expanded, so we can more greatly bomb military and communist targets. But, there is one big project. A spy will be planted in the Communist Cuban government. He will spend countless hours training, in every possible way, and will be of Cuban descent. The new CIA will help with this.
The CIA is once again getting huge improvements. This is a HUGE task, and a lot will be spent on it. The CIA needs to be the top secret service agency in the world, and even beyond that. Their main projects now are, Cuba, Israel, Korea, and the protection of the American homeland.
Israel should be given new info on the Arab states that the new CIA has found.
Anti-Communist insurgents in Korea should be funded again, given all new information available about Communist Korea, and will be supplied with arms and support. Encourage the insurgents to try to distrupt areas that are Communist, and gain a foothold in areas that heavily support the capitalists.

[Sorry for the delay]
Agriculture: Agriculture specialists comb the land to find best practices and folk wisdoms used by peasants. These are collected, compared, and improved by scientific research and experimentation. A research institute on improving crop yields, esp. that of rice, is created. Wild stains are also investigated for various desirable traits (e.g. pest resistance, disease resistance) to be included via hybridisation.
The army corp of construction and agriculture in Xingjiang is given the task of slowing and then stopping desertification of the land in the province.
Industries: Industrialisation is now more diversified, as light industries get a share of funding. Priority in this area is first given to high value export good such as satin. Larger armount of bicycles are also produced for the domestic market. Also, hydro power stations are planned to generate electricity and regulate flood.
City development: New sections that are under construction are to be serviced mainly by public transportation and bicycles. New building to be built with energy saving techniques.
Military: Modernization and the efforts to increase overall effectiveness continue. The liberation of Tibet continues.
International: A trade delegation is sent to Pakistan to formalise bilateral trading arrangements, while high level talks with India to improve relations continue. Formal ties with DDR, USSR, and a unified Korea are to be strengthened. Cordial relations with Laos is maintained, however an alliance is probably out of the question, as we are both part of the Non-Allied Movement. We openly lean moral support to the Vietnam rebels, while secretly fund their efforts.
Secret delegations are sent to the US and various other First World countries.
Intelligence/Counterintelligence: concentrates on counter-revolutionary efforts conducted by imperialist countries headed by the USA. Anti-KMT groups and CCP sympathisers are actively sought and/or promoted in Taiwan.
R & D: SECRET current concentrations are on the A-bomb and ballistic missiles. Reseach projects for the next generation of weapons such as tanks, jet fighters, missiles, and subs have been launched or will be launched.
Non-secret: generic improvements on power generation and industrial technology/machinery. Current efforts of recruiting Chinese scholars and reseachers continue.
Social: Nationalism is actively promoted to counter counter-revolutionary sentiments.

July through December 1951
WAR: See ‘Cuba’ for news on the Atlantic War and ‘Other News’ for the brewing European War.
East Germany
The “World Festival of Youth and Students” was mildly successful, drawing the attendance of a number of German youths and even a few foreigners.
The Warsaw embargo of the U.S. went into effect mere weeks before the outbreak of total hostilities between the Communist and Western Capitalist countries. With this state of hostilities, the East German Government has cracked down monumentally hard on any suspected spies or insurgents.
West Berlin huddles in fear. All Germans, East and West, are not really happy about the fact that their country is the #2, possibly #1 meeting place for the great, apparently unstoppable conflict that has now been set in motion. In an attempt to prepare for this, the army has been enlarged.
Finland
Still an eye in the forming European storm, Finland continues to focus its attention on raising standards of living and industrial competitiveness, but many wonder if their will be a world to come to their Olympics. But hey, if the rest of the world erupts in nuclear fire, Finland will probably have a sufficient industrial base to go it on their own.
China
The sophisticated and the subtle, the traditional and the technological, have been combined in China’s impressive agricultural program. Stronger strains of food crops are being bred, and China is on its way to having the same level of success with its “Green Revolution” as the western nations. There are however logistical impediments to the adoption of these new agricultural varieties, namely the sheer quantity and extent of land that these strains must be introduced in, and learning which ones will react favorably to pesticides, and ensuring that they do not imbalance the native ecosystems.
The corps of construction and agriculture in Xingjiang has a significantly more difficult task at hand, stopping desertification in the province. Intensive agriculture is still needed to maintain sufficient crop yields, requiring much water and tilling, and perhaps the desertification could not be stopped even if the land were allowed to lay completely fallow. In any case, the corps is investigating more efficient methods of water use and crop rotation, as well as building barriers around threatened land, and hope to come up with a viable plan soon to combat the dwindling of the land and water supply.
Light manufacturing and export and consumer goods have finally received some attention, but this is mostly constrained to Urban areas. However rural regions are finally beginning to see electricity and flood control, reducing somewhat the peasants’ burdens.
China’s famed “Urban Revolution” continues, with yet more projects to renovate city cores. While the targeted areas are seeing improvements, the sheer quantities of projects that have been initiated are putting a squeeze on the workers and peasants who must supply the labor and materials, and the organizational complexity of the government’s programs is making it easier for corrupt officials to take a little slice for themselves, further burgeoning the required inputs of resources and manpower.
The “liberation” of Tibet is complete! Tibet has surrendered, requesting regional autonomy and religious freedom, and Chinese troops march into Lhasa.
Trade talks with Pakistan are successful, and negotiations with the other countries are proving fruitful, solidifying China’s diplomatic position with her neighbors. However, France has sent a formal request to cease aiding in any fashion the Indochinese rebels.
More spy stuff and research continues apace.
USA
More Espionage in Korea. The CIA wasn’t here. Fnork. Pretty much everything else is tied up in the war.
USSR
An incentive-based economic improvement scheme has been put in place. See war news for other stuff.
Egypt
King Farouk’s efforts have done much to ease relations and reduce the potential for conflict with Israel. However, mutual distrust and Israel’s heightened alertness considering their relations with other Arab countries has left tensions high. Israel’s military has not made any aggressive moves, but they refuse to pull back, stating that Egypt can afford to move back 20 miles into the Sinai but Israel cannot afford to withdraw from her fragile borders even an inch.
Now fighting a war with the Soviets, Britain has made a strategic offer to Egypt: Joint control over the Sinai Canal Zone if Egypt supports Britain, U.S., and allies against the Communist. Britain has stated that warfare will not be required on Egypt’s part, so long as they do not allow Soviet allies to use the Canal. They ask for a quick response to this offer.
The UN has more important things to deal with now then a dam in Africa.
The King’s diplomatic skill in dealing with Israel and the timely British offer have renewed some faith in the monarchy, but there is still considerable agitation for republican reform, especially over alleged corruption within the government.
Egpyt’s special administrative province, Sudan, is agitating for independence. There has been no violence yet, but there is little support for the monarchy among the population, and local Sudanese officials have been trying for years to gain power at the expense of Egyptian administrators.
Egypt’s military guy says to no one in particular, “It’s a dam good thing we’ve been making those military preparations.”
Mexico
Mexico immediately feels the hurt of her embargo against the US. Due to the Roaming Death of the Seas that is the epic conflict between the Soviets and Americans, Mexico is unable to trade with any of the Communist nations save a little bit of commerce with China and North Korea. Demonstrations are being held among large segments of Mexico’s population at this blow to their livelihood. Conflicts with police have escalated into violence in several places. The diplomatic reversal has also confused the population of Mexico, destroying their confidence in the government. Several provinces appear to be on the verge of open revolt. The only thing that seems to be holding them back is their respect and adoration for Morgan Freeman.
Cuba
This is the Catchall Section on war in the Western Hemisphere, as afterall, it all started with Cuba. Thanks a lot Fidel.
Several Cuban Communist leaders have been assassinated. This would be more notable news if not for the fact that there is an enormous war going on all around Cuba, the North Atlantic and North Pacific, and into Europe. American tried to continue the takeover of Cuba, and the Soviets tried to land troops to liberate it. The result has been a series of massive, all out maritime battles. This fighting has drawn NATO and then the Warsaw Pact into the war. Submarines, aircraft carriers, cruisers, and air craft are duking it out from the Atlantic to the Pacific. NATO ships have bottlenecked the Soviet surface fleet in the North Seas, and submarine warfare takes place wherever these cold enemies meet. The Soviets have attempted to bomb US east coast cities, but lacking a secure base of operations their carrier-based sorties have been repulsed by US air superiority.
The Island of Cuba itself is a storm of operations, US forces and special ops fighting Cuban guerillas and a few Soviet mechanized units that have managed to land. Sea superiority has not been achieved by any of the powers, and the fleets of the US, Soviets, and their allies have been heavily damaged, with many ships and support vessels sunk. Similarly the clashing Soviet and European air forces have inflicted heavy losses on each other.
Other News
Everything has gone to hell.
The bombers and fighters of the Warsaw Pact and NATO are ready to beat the pulp out of each other. The divisions are mobilized and lined up on the border. Skirmishes and artillery bombardments have begun already on the borders of Czechoslovakia, West Germany, Hungary, and Austria. Surprisingly, no fighting has yet occurred between the East and West Germans. Million man armies are poised to tear Europe apart once again, and there is of course the looming threat of nuclear warfare. It seems as though World War Three has arrived.
