Summary:

Since the early 1960s, when the United States imposed a trade embargo on Cuba, the centerpiece of U.S. policy toward Cuba has consisted of economic sanctions aimed at isolating the Cuban government. In December 2014, however, the Obama Administration initiated a major policy shift, moving away from sanctions toward a policy of engagement and the normalization of relations. The policy change included the rescission of Cuba’s designation as a state sponsor of international terrorism in May 2015; the restoration of diplomatic relations in July 2015; and steps to increase travel, commerce, and the flow of information to Cuba. In June 2017, President Trump unveiled his policy on Cuba. The policy leaves most of the Obama-era policy changes in place but rolls back some efforts to normalize relations, including restrictions on people-to-people educational travel to Cuba and on financial transactions with companies controlled by the Cuban military.
