Abstract
The Spanish foreign policy in the Caribbean during the middle of nineteenth century was directed to the construction of several counterbalances that diminished the United States pressure against Cuba. The failure of the Spanish projects in Mexico and Dominican Republic during the reign of Elizabeth II and the outbreak of Cuban crisis had influence in the Spanish foreign policy during the Sexenio and the Restauracion and converted to the Caribbean in a vital zone for the Spanish diplomacy. This situation moved to Spain to try to normalize his diplomatic relations with the Hispanic American states which, from their independence, had suffered the agressive or indifferent attitude from the old colonial metropolis.

La política implementada por España entre 1868 y 1878 sentó las bases de la acción exterior española hacia esta región durante las dos últimas décadas del siglo XIX, a lo largo de las cuales tendría lugar la progresiva normalización de las relaciones con la totalidad de las repúblicas caribeñas, la superación de los antiguos conflictos bilaterales que habían enfrentado a la antigua metrópoli con las mismas y la conformación de intereses económicos y estratégicos comunes[124]
Summary
RESUMEN: La política exterior española en el Caribe durante las décadas centrales del siglo XIX estuvo dirigida a la construcción de una serie de contrapesos que frenaran la presión estadounidense sobre Cuba. El fracaso de los proyectos intervencionistas en México y la República Dominicana ensayados durante el reinado de Isabel II y el estallido de la crisis cubana mediatizaron por completo la política exterior española durante el Sexenio y la Restauración y convirtieron a la cuenca del Caribe en una zona de vital interés para la diplomacia española. Ello impulsó a España a tratar de normalizar sus relaciones con una serie de Estados que, desde la independencia, habían tenido que enfrentarse con la actitud intervencionista o indiferente de la antigua metrópoli colonial.
