Oil / Foreign Exchange / Medicine / Imports / Exports Today is the 60th anniversary of the US embargo against Cuba. Last year, for the 29th year in a row, 184 countries in the United Nations General Assembly voted to end the economic blockade against Cuba – only the United States and Israel voted no. The Soviet Union collapsed more than 3 decades ago, but the embargo against Cuba continues. The US trades with Saudi Arabia, but the embargo against Cuba continues. Why are we so out of step with the rest of the world?
