Comments: Why would that matter? I accept that just like I accept many things my mom says and I disagree with. Cubans may affect Florida's elections only (not even sure of that). Iranian old farts definitely do not affect anything. I dont let these ruin my day. A Cuban American identity is tied to this conflict, I am more empathetic
Comments: Of course! The same goes with IRI. No matter what, the government of each country is responsible for their citizens. I’m talking about American citizens including Iranians and Cubans who believe one party is going to help them while it’s all just a game.
Comments: Yes but Cuban government and system still to blame for the poverty and backwardness in Cuba not Americans
Comments: Shahin, Exactly! America is fine with those countries being what they are. The sad part is that republicans have made Iranians and Cubans living here believe they are changing things in their countries for a long time. They get votes from them while doing nothing to change the regime in either Iran or Cuba.
Comments: Zinsky: Cuba policy has been exploited by neocons and republicans for years. Obama tried to change that but the cost benefit analysis is not there to change it for democrats

Comments: The Biden administration recently made two grim announcements: Iran is helping to manufacture drones for Russia. China operates a spy base in Cuba. The message is clear: America’s foes are joining forces. They now constitute what Washington’s influential Center for a New American Security recently called a new “axis of authoritarians,” which threatens U.S. interests from East Asia to the Caribbean and Eastern Europe to the Persian Gulf. The phrase implies that what binds the governments of Russia, China, Iran and Cuba is their common aversion to democracy. For a Washington foreign-policy class that often depicts America’s geopolitical struggles as contests between freedom and tyranny, it’s an appealing narrative. But there’s a problem. Only a few years ago, the governments of Cuba and Iran — which had the same authoritarian political systems back then — were pursuing closer ties to Washington. They didn’t swerve toward Russia and China because they realized they hate democracy. They swerved because the United States spurned those overtures and drove them into the arms of America’s great-power foes. Under both Donald Trump and President Biden, Washington has helped create the very anti-American partnerships it now bemoans, which is exactly what it did during the last Cold War. Take Cuba. For most of the post-Cold War era, its government’s strategy has been fairly clear: keep its political system closed while opening the economy to foreign investment. That required better relations with Washington, since U.S. sanctions not only barred Cuba from its biggest potential source of tourism and trade but also scared off European companies. William LeoGrande, a Latin America expert at American University, told me, “Every major component of Cuba’s economic strategy in the last two decades had been premised on long-term expectations that the relationship with the U.S. would improve.”
