On more than 30 occasions, the United Nations Assembly has discussed the blockade against Cuba, which costs the island 5 billion dollars annually, according to some estimates. Every year the resolution is proposed and the whole world, through the vote of the absolute majority of the member countries of the United Nations General Assembly, has condemned the imperialist attitude of the United States towards Cuba.
There is no blockade of Cuba. It’s an embargo. There are no military ships blowing up anyone trying to trade with Cuba.
Different only in name. Having to choose between trade with America and trade with Cuba makes it impossible for any country to do business with Cuba.
If this soft power was not available you bet we would be seeing military ships around cuba.
There are no secondary sanctions on Cuba.
I’m 2024? No shot. They’d end the embargo before doing that.
