@gametheorytoday: Unfriending Communism in the Americas - The Dominican Republic just expelled nine Cuban diplomats — and refused to say why. They don't have to: Article 9 of the Vienna Convention lets any country remove any diplomat with no explanation. That's the fourth country this year, after Ecuador, Costa Rica, and Colombia. Here's the game theory: for sixty years, staying friends with Havana was free, because Washington's objections were just talk. This year that changed — and when the big power gets serious, being LAST to leave becomes the dangerous seat. Nobody wants to be the final government holding hands with Havana when this ends. One signal, four countries doing the same math. Who's fifth? Keep thinking. #gametheorytoday #geopolitics #cuba #havana #dominicanrepublic
