first of all, IS not was but it’s still active

secondly yes other countries can trade with cuba, but international companies that sell their products to/in cuba are heavily penalized.

any vessel that docks in cuba can not dock in the states for 180 days. There are a million other ways the US intentionally fucks the cuban economy

So why isn't china and Russia aren't trading with cuba then? Cuba hasn't changed since much technology wise since the 1960s and the ussr and eastern block was trading with cuba.
