What the US is doing to Cuba is nothing sort of criminal. It's been 60 years since the bay of Pigs and Cuban Crisis, it's time to end the embargo.
One thing that I was hopeful in the Biden v. Trump 2024 was that whoever won wouldn't have felt the need to win Florida anymore in their lifetime and so they could have gone for the legacy of ending the embargo on Cuba during their Presidency.
Instead now with Harris of course she's gonna need Florida twice
- proc0 2y agoUS is doing nothing. No country has the "right" to trade with any other. Maybe Cuba should start admitting their system does not work.
- unethical_ban 2y agoA 60-year-old diplomatic row aside, where is The logic in continuing at embargo on Cuba considering any of the other countries and governments the US allows business and travel with?
- noduerme 2y ago>> considering any of the other countries Precisely. The flaw is not in continuing an embargo againsy Cuba. It's in not putting an embargo on China, Qatar, and other regimes that treat their workers/denizens like slaves.
- noduerme 2y agoSorry, but why is it criminal? I wish the US and Europe would embargo every regime that jails its political adversaries.
- JumpinJack_Cash 2y agoChina ring a bell? Russia until the invasion of Ukraine ring a bell? Saudi Arabia and GCC countries where this happens every 10 years or so (publicly and/or silently)
- noduerme 2y agoWhat part of my comment didn't you understand? Yes, all of them. We shouldn't do business with human rights violators. Full stop.
- JumpinJack_Cash 2y agoYes but among those the least dangerous and the ones whose interests are more aligned with the US is Cuba. Geography is still king, US, Mexico,Canada and the Caribbean , some would say all the way to Cape Horn in Patagonia all share the same interests. Hillary would always repeat this thing about safety in America, meaning the whole continent . If you wanted to bring back manufacturing jobs you'd start from India and China and leave Mexico as the last
- justinko 2y agoIf trade opened up you think money would flow to the people? The military dictatorship controls absolutely everything.
