Cuban embargo to end?
It may be legal Cuban cigars all round in Washington soon. The Democrats may use their control of Congress to end the Cuban embargo, a policy that has contributed to Cuban poverty and helped Castro consolidate his position. Embargoes never work - it’s only through greater engagement and trade that democracy can be achieved.
I always believed that it was American policy towards Cuba that forced it to join the Russians back in the 50s. In effect the US created the problem themselves. This is at last a move in the right direction to begin to correct this mistake.
