Lot 2898 | Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar - Kriegserklärung Kubas an das Japanische Kaiserreich vom 9. Dezember 1941
Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar - Kriegserklärung Kubas an das Japanische Kaiserreich vom 9. Dezember 1941
Maschinengeschriebenes Dokument, betitelt "Ley No. 32", darunter "Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar, Presidente de la República de Cuba, HAGO SABER: Que el Congreso ha votado, y yo he sancionado, la siguiente RESOLUCION CONJUNTA:". Im Folgenden die aus zwei Artikeln bestehende Kriegserklärung "A partir del dia de hoy queda declarado un estado de guerra entre la República de Cuba y el Imperio del Japón..." mit der Ermächtigung des Präsidenten, die Streitkräfte zur Verteidigung der "solidaridad interamericana", der westlichen Hemisphäre sowie der Demokratie und Freiheit einzusetzen. "DADA en el Palacio de la Presidencia, en la Habana, a 9 de diciembre de 1941". Darunter die Originalunterschriften in Tinte des Präsidenten Batista, des Premierministers Carlos Saladrigas Zayas und des Außenministers José Manuel Cortina mit den Blindprägesiegeln der beiden Minister sowie dem in Blau blindgeprägten Oblatensiegel des Präsidenten. Sitzspuren des überwiegend fehlenden blauen Seidenbands für das Siegel des Präsidenten, am rechten Rand etwas fleckig. Dazu zwei Abzüge von Porträtfotos Batistas in Uniform bzw. Zivil.
Nach dem japanischen Angriff auf Pearl Harbor am 7. Dezember 1941 erklärte Japan am 8. Dezember den USA den Krieg, noch am selben Tag folgten die Kriegserklärungen Costa Ricas, El Salvadors, Haitis, Honduras und Nicaraguas gegen Japan und einen Tag später die Kubas und Guatemalas.
Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar (1901 - 1973): Als Folge des von ihm angeführten Putsches der kubanischen Sergeants am 4.9.1933 wird Ramon Grau Präsident und Batista Chef der Armee und faktisch mächtigster Mann. Im Oktober 1940 wird er selbst zum Präsidenten gewählt; die Regierung des anfangs noch beliebten Batistas wird jedoch zunehmend von Korruption, dem Einfluss der USA sowie der amerikanischen Mafia bestimmt. 1944 wird ihm per Gesetz untersagt, sich wiederwählen zu lassen, er geht nach Florida ins Exil, kehrt 1952 zurück, putscht erneut und wird als Diktator bis zur Machtübernahme durch Fidel Castro 1959 wieder Machthaber in Kuba.

Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar – Cuba's Declaration of War against the Japanese Empire on 9 December 1941
Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar – Cuba's Declaration of War against the Japanese Empire on 9 December 1941
Typewritten document with the heading "Ley No. 32", below which the text "Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar, Presidente de la República de Cuba, HAGO SABER: Que el Congreso ha votado, y yo he sancionado, la siguiente RESOLUCION CONJUNTA:". The declaration of war follows, composed of two articles: "A partir del dia de hoy queda declarado un estado de guerra entre la República de Cuba y el Imperio del Japón..." with the authorisation of the President to deploy the armed forces to defend the "solidaridad interamericana", the Western hemisphere and democracy and freedom. "DADA en el Palacio de la Presidencia, en la Habana, a 9 de diciembre de 1941". At the bottom are the original signatures in ink of President Batista, Prime Minister Carlos Saladrigas Zayas and Foreign Minister José Manuel Cortina with the blind embossed seals of the two ministers as well as the President's blind embossed blue wafer seal. Outlines of the blue silk ribbon, most of which has been lost, as part of the President's seal. Somewhat stained on the right edge. Also includes two portrait photographs of Batista in uniform and in civilian dress.
After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, Japan declared war on the United States on 8 December. Costa Rica, El Salvador, Haiti, Honduras and Nicaragua declared war on Japan the same day, while Cuba and Guatemala issued declarations of war the following day.
Fulgencio Batista y Zalvidar (1901 - 1973): As a result of the revolt of the Cuban Sergeants he led on 4 September 1933, Ramón Grau became President and Batista became head of the army and de facto the most powerful man in Cuba. Elected President himself in October 1940, Batista's administration, although originally popular, became increasingly affected by corruption, the influence of the U.S. and the American Mafia. In 1944, he was forbidden by law to be re-elected as president. He went to Florida in exile but returned to take power in another coup in 1952, and again assumed power as dictator of Cuba until Fidel Castro took over in 1959.
