A defiant U.S. intelligence analyst, who confessed to spying for Cuba throughout her 16 year-career, harshly criticized American policy toward Fidel Castro and was sentenced Wednesday to 25 years in prison.
``Our government's policy toward Cuba is cruel and unfair, profoundly unneighborly, and I felt morally obligated to help the island defend itself from our efforts to impose our values and our political system on it,'' Ana Belen Montes, 45, said in a five-minute speech to U.S. District Judge Ricardo Urbina.
Montes allowed in her remarks that her action ``may have been morally wrong.''
``I can only say that I did what I thought right to counter a grave injustice,'' she said.
Urbina responded to Montes' statement by describing her action as a ``betrayal.''
``If you can't love your country, then at the very least you should do it no wrong,'' the judge said.
