- zepto 5y agoSure - that’s pretty much how it works. If you own and can defend a jurisdiction where you can do that, other people will likely pay or trade things with you to stop.
- vkou 5y agoA cheaper way to deal with you is to embargo/tariff your exports, until you come back to the negotiating table, hat in hand.
- mPReDiToR 5y agoNot sure that always works. Hang on, Fidel Castro is on the other line.
- vkou 5y agoThat was a life-or-death political issue for the communist party of Cuba (USSR subsidies also mitigated some of the damage the embargo caused). This is just a question of money - which is far more tractable.
- zepto 5y agoSeems like there are some pretty large blocs who won’t embargo you these days.
