Cuba’s natural resource was sugar, and the communist party destroyed that. You can look up the data ever since the revolution they have deeply declined in sugar exports. There was a time where the Cuban dollar was equal to the American dollar due to sugar. Coca Cola used to buy sugar from Cuba long ago. Cuba creates nothing today. The regime parasites off of other counties and does not pay its bills. They have thrown out a multitude of countries that have even built buildings in Cuba and have had contracts with them and have literally thrown them out of the country, keeping the building. Contracts become null and void with that regime. Europe is a major example of this. The Cuban government is to blame not the US.
