Democracy in Cuba depends on ending embargoes, not maintaining them

Photo: Yamil Lage/AFP/Getty Images in February 1962 the president of the united states, John F. Kennedy, decreed a trade embargo against Cuba. 60 Years later, the situation remains the same.. After all, why the United States declared an embargo against Cuba? What are the results achieved?? It still makes sense to maintain embargoes against Cuba?

When deploying Russian troops to Ukrainian territory, Vladimir Putin used the allegation of a “genocide” in the eastern region committed by “neo-Nazi” troops. Para Volodymyr Zelensky, which received support from other international actors, including the United States, Russian interests go beyond this. By opting for military invasion, Putin sends a message to the adversary: Ukraine's entry into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, who had been making great strides in Zelensky's administration, will not be tolerated. For the States...
