In a statement, the U.S. Treasury Department mentioned Cuban dissident Jose Daniel Ferrer who it said was in a prison controlled by the ministry and was reported to have been beaten and tortured

“The United States will continue to use all the tools at its disposal to address the dire human rights situation in Cuba and elsewhere around the world,” Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said in the statement.Washington also blacklisted Cuban Interior Minister Lazaro Alberto Álvarez Casas.

Trump’s policy was popular among the large Cuban-American population in South Florida, helping him win the state in the November election though he lost the national vote to Joe Biden, who was Obama’s vice president. The Trump administration announced on Monday it was returning Cuba to the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism, a move that could complicate any efforts by the incoming Biden administration to revive Obama-era detente with Havana.

Such American hypocrisy

I travel to Cuba every year I've been 10 times in the last 9 years. My favourite place to go. The best most friendly people and a beautiful place to go for beaches and culture. When you talk to locals you learn alot, i hope Biden makes the mend again.

What a joke the US has become

I really don’t think the US has a leg to stand on here lmao
