In December 2014 President Obama ordered the restoration of full democratic relations with Cuba. The order lifted a 54 year old trade embargo and eased restrictions on banking and American’s travel to the country. Proponents of relations with Cuba argue that U.S. influence through tourism and trade will promote capitalism and weaken its communist regime. Opponents argue that trade and diplomatic relations will only strengthen the communist regime’s grip on the Cuban government.

Yes but Cuba needs to overthrow its government
@9334YP32yrs2Y
No, the US must finish the war with Cuba and restore the exiled Cuban government to power.
@MSelvig2yrs2Y
I do not have a personal opinion on this subject.
@8RB2K9D2yrs2Y
Yes, but only lift sanctions gradually until Cuba introduces reforms
@8GLTTPB2yrs2Y
The country should lift the trade and travel embargo if human rights abuses are no longer a major issue
@85QWNPG2yrs2Y
Yes, open trade leads to an open market which leads to financial freedoms, this is also the method we should use with North Korea.

Yes, but if they violate any terms or are suspected or harboring terrorists, then the embargo goes back into place.
Deleted2yrs2Y
indifferent on this issue
Deleted2yrs2Y
Yes, but if they violate any terms or are suspected or harboring terrorists, then the embargo goes back into place; the US should involve itself in changing the government and create a new ally for itself.
@8XLR4JX2yrs2Y
Yes, assuming the benefits aren’t going solely to the oppressive government
@8VW68P63yrs3Y
No, lift the travel embargo but ban trade until Cuba becomes any thing other than a communist state.
@8TVYZQL3yrs3Y
Yes, but the trade and travel embargo should be reenacted if any signs of aggression towards America or if any human rights violations are to occur.
@lucasnat0r3yrs3Y
No the country failing will make the citizens realize the failure of Communism.

Deleted3yrs3Y
No, do not allow travel or trade to Cuba until it stops the human rights violation within the country and becomes capitalistic.
@TogetherinSoli13yrs3Y
Yes, however, tariffs should be put in place until Cuba gives better rights to its citizens
@8PMF46F3yrs3Y
Yes, it is incredibly hypocritical to not trade with Cuba but continue with China based on governmental ideology.
@8PKMR8K3yrs3Y
No, and trade restrictions should be implemented for all foreign trade to increase idependence.
@8PCSDKH3yrs3Y
Obama created Obamacare so I don't support it.

@8KRN6JB3yrs3Y
yes, but only for private use such as tourism or things of that sort. if any act of terrorism or derogatory thing comes out of it, put the embargo back.

We should cut all trade and travel to communist nations. The second Cuba becomes a free country open it up.
@8GR8N5C4yrs4Y
