Biden Takes Hard Line On Cuba.

In stark contrast to Obama era loosening of restrictions, the Biden Administration is taking a harder line on the island nation with additional sanctions. (Politico)


President Obama opened up American relations with Cuba in a dramatic way only to see the new dawn of relations be completely curtailed by the Trump Administration. Cuba would benefit greatly from increased interactions with America and improved diplomatic exchanges would hasten democratic reforms on the island. Unfortunately, President Biden is far more conservative with his Cuba foreign policy which is causing a backwards slide in efforts to bring Cuba into 21 century. More diplomacy not less is the solution and President Biden would be wise to heed that advice.
