SUA anunţă noi sancţiuni pentru Cuba - Economica.net

The United States has tightened sanctions against Cuba, imposing new financial restrictions and reducing travel authorizations for American citizens. The updated sanctions from the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) prohibit indirect financial transactions with sanctioned Cuban entities, particularly those linked to the security apparatus and the military's economic consortium, Gaesa. Additionally, OFAC has removed a previously allowed transaction type that enabled U.S. banks to process payments involving Cuba. The new regulations also restrict certain travel categories that were previously authorized under the Obama administration. Tensions between the U.S. and Cuba have escalated since Donald Trump's presidency, with the U.S. viewing Cuba as a significant national security threat.
