Could have a significant impact on Trump administration’s ability to enforce a blockade on Cuba. Though there are certainly other forms of leverage at play, they lack the speed and punch of immediate tariffs without a rulemaking process.

Please be mindful of the forum’s rules; I bring this news up only in the context of US policy apropos Cuba.

They'll just "bake the cake" with a different recipe. The blockage will remain on Cuba.

No question they’ll try, they just have less immediately leverage over countries like Mexico now. Nevertheless there are other levers available.

Not my intent to violate this and sincerely apologize if I have come close in that regard.
