When the Treaty of Paris was signed on December 10, 1898, Cuba changed hands from Spain to the United States—but Cubans themselves were not at the table. This episode explores the diplomatic chess game that ended the Spanish-American War. We trace the negotiations from the August 12 armistice through the four months of bargaining in Paris, where Spanish diplomats tried to save face while US representatives demanded Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. We examine the key figures: Spanish premier Práxedes Sagasta, US president William McKinley, and the Cuban delegation led by Tomás Estrada Palma—who was excluded from the talks. We discuss the Teller Amendment, which promised Cuban independence but was later undercut by the Platt Amendment. And we look at how the treaty's terms left Cuba politically independent yet economically bound to its northern neighbor, setting the stage for decades of US intervention. This is the story of a war that Cuba won on the battlefield but lost at the negotiating table. #Cuba #TreatyOfParis #SpanishAmericanWar #TomásEstradaPalma #WilliamMcKinley #PráxedesSagasta #TellerAmendment #PlattAmendment #USIntervention #CubanIndependence #1898 #CaribbeanHistory #Diplomacy #History #FexingoHistory #Podcast #WarDiplomacy #CubanHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
