Trump announces new measures to stifle Cuba: More restrictions on tourism and obstacles to foreign investment
Briefly

Donald Trump signed a memorandum reinforcing U.S. policy toward Cuba, focusing on limiting tourism, restricting foreign investments, and enforcing existing economic sanctions. This follows a consistent approach from his first term, reversing the relief efforts initiated by Barack Obama. Economists believe these measures further strangle Cuba's already struggling economy. Joe Biden largely ignored Cuba issues during his presidency, maintaining many of Trump's restrictions, but did remove Cuba from the list of state sponsors of terrorism, a move that was quickly reversed by Trump upon taking office again.
Donald Trump signed a memorandum aimed at strengthening U.S. policy toward Cuba, indicating intentions to limit tourism, foreign investment, and reinforce the economic embargo against the island.
Economic restrictions imposed by Trump's administration, alongside a deep crisis in the Cuban economic system, have severely impacted the country's economy, contrasting with the brief relief provided by Obama.
Trump's policy emphasizes support for Cuban-Americans, reiterating his commitment to stand with Cubans in their quest for justice, liberty, and freedom, while maintaining economic sanctions.
Biden's administration initially ignored Cuba policy, leaving many restrictions from Trump's first term intact, only to reinstate Cuba's designation as a state sponsor of terrorism shortly after Trump's second inauguration.
