We as a country have had an embargo on Cuba since for around
60 years now. The Obama administration
has loosened up some of the travel restrictions since then but now is the first
time that a governor will lead a trade mission in Cuba. The governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, will
be going to Cuba to promote an initiative for foreign investment in New York
State. This is a big deal because it
shows how things have changed. It isn’t
a drastic change like all of the sudden we are vacationing there, but we are
sending large politicians there and loosening the restrictions slowly. Obamas new policy is expanding US travel to
and trade with Cuba. We can slowly start
to see the effects of the Cold War drifting away!
