President Donald Trump on Friday signed an executive order broadening U.S. sanctions against the Cuban government, two White House officials told Reuters. He seeks to put more pressure on Havana, following his administration’s challenge to Venezuela’s leadership. The new sanctions target people, entities and affiliates supporting Cuba’s security apparatus, or those complicit in corruption or serious human rights violations, officials said. Government agents, officials or supporters are also included. It was not immediately clear which specific people or entities were impacted by the sanctions under the order, which Reuters first reported. The order authorizes secondary sanctions for conducting or facilitating transactions with those targeted under the order, officials said.



Cuba had every capability of avoiding this outcome, demonstrable by the fact that THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN TO OTHER COUNTRIES. Cuba has every tool at its disposal to stop this immediately. Remove the despots from power, stop cooperating with adversarial nations on the other side of the globe. Simple as.
This is like telling the victim of a rape to say I consent to stop getting raped. Like, an actual very stupid thing to say.
“Listen, you have all the tools to stop this rape. Just consent so it’s not rape anymore.”

Your message is like telling a woman to stop carrying mace to defend herself from rape, to take down the restraining order so the rapist and his convicted felon rapist friends can move into the next apartment over.
…I see this particular mind was not done being deranged.
