Cuba’s critics blame the government for the daily hardships Cubans face, dismissing U.S. sanctions as an excuse. This is like blaming a person for not swimming well when they are chained to the ground. The U.S. blockade of Cuba is real. It is the longest and most extensive system of unilateral sanctions applied against any country in modern history. It affects every aspect of Cuban life.
