President Donald Trump has issued a new policy that makes restrictions on Cuba much tougher, undoing earlier efforts by the Biden administration to reduce pressure on the Communist-led country.
This decision shows a return to a hardline approach, continuing policies from Trump’s first term and expanding them in recent months. According to a White House memo found by the BBC, the main goal is to more strictly enforce existing bans on American tourists visiting Cuba and to reject international demands. This includes those from the United Nations to lift the long-standing US economic embargo on the island.
