The delegation told Cuba’s leadership that it had only a narrow window of time to make the economic and political changes demanded by the Trump administration.

[Imperialist vultures circling around Cuba - drive them out!]

The U.S. delegation last week proposed bringing Starlink satellite internet to the island and allowing free connectivity. It also urged the Cuban regime to make economic changes to attract foreign capital, grow the private sector and transition to a market-based economy.

These economic changes, the State Department official said, would also need to include ways to compensate U.S. citizens and corporations that had assets and properties confiscated in the 1960s.

Cuba would also need to release political prisoners, the official added, and allow greater political freedom.

    I’ll give separate response to you citing OH SO MUCH to show Biden kept with the same policy for most every president in the past half century, while being lazy on the improvements Obama AND HIM had championed.

    When did Biden blockade the island?

    Again this was while inflation was rampant a d everyone was blaming Biden for gas prices despite us being at the gas prices we have now.

    So again, yes as you cited, many aspects stayed the same. The admin voted in the UN the same as past admins had…

    When did Biden blockade the island?

    Tell me where Biden threatened invasion? Or praised allah while telling Cuba they’re next?

    What policy like that you see now in Trump, was EVER reflected in Biden prior?

    When did Biden blockade the island?

    When was it reported that BIDEN was reviewing invasion plans?

      You’re missing the point so much, I’m actually impressed. Do you know any history of US control over Cuba?

        Do you have any understanding of the past decade? Or do you need to go back a century to make a sense that clearly makes no sense right now?

        I mean if this eas the 70s you’d have a point. But the Obama admin proved you wrong while you desperately cling to a past that isn’t now.
