Every other country was free to trade with them?

lol?

You do realize the US banned any companies from trading with the US if they had traded with Cuba before?

And used this against Iran, too?




That's very deceptive. That restriction was applied to US companies' foreign subsidiaries in 1992, and to all foreign companies in 1995. Castro came to power in 1959. Thirty-three years of economic catastrophe is enough to make my point.
