US President Donald Trump has initiated a review process to reinforce sanctions against Cuba, directing his cabinet to assess the current measures and suggest enhancements within the next 30 days.
In a comprehensive memorandum addressed to key federal departments, Trump emphasized the need to focus on Cuba's treatment of dissidents, its policies affecting them, and the flow of remittances from Cuban Americans in the US.
The directive hints at substantial policy shifts, including a potential overhaul of tourism and educational visits to Cuba, consistent with Trump's previous declarations to reverse the Cuba policies of the Obama-Biden era.
