    The US embargo also affects other countries. They don’t let ships dock at Cuba and then the US, for example. The reason they get oil from Venezuela is because they’re also iced out of much of the world market by US through sanctions.

    Also, the US is 80 miles off the coast of Cuba and huge. Them not being available to trade with Cuba is a huge disadvantage.

      Ask the average Cuban if they rather have the embargo lifted or be able to leave the country
