US tightens sanctions against Cuba

92
US authorities have decided to tighten sanctions against the army, intelligence agencies and security services of Cuba, according to the materials of the US Treasury, distributed on Wednesday by the press service of the US State Department.

US tightens sanctions against Cuba


They indicate that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will publish a list of organizations that are under control or act on behalf of the “Cuban military, intelligence or security services”, as well as employees of these organizations whose direct financial operations of third parties “bring disproportionately large benefits” to the listed structures . The Treasury clarifies that "persons who are under US jurisdiction will now be prohibited from making certain direct financial transactions" with these organizations.

At the same time, the materials of the ministry emphasize that the new rules do not have retroactive effect: they do not apply to agreements concluded before the publication of the list. In general, the US authorities note that these measures are aimed at diverting financial activity from the Cuban defense and intelligence sectors. At the same time, the business cooperation with Cuba does not stop completely, the Americans will be able to continue to make deals with local companies that have not been blacklisted.

New rules come into force on November 9, reports TASS

        From the point of view of banal erudition, each individual who critically motivates abstraction cannot ignore the criteria of utopian subjectivity conceptually interpreting generally accepted defanizing polarizers, therefore, the consensus reached by the dialectical material classification of universal motivations in the paradogmatic connections of predicates solves the problem of improving the formations of geo-transplant transplant geologic transplant .
        Obviously, all of the above sheds light on the theory of predicative sensations of the subject, absolutely non-functional in the conditions of abstract chaos ... wassat

      Cuba needs to enter a response crap in order to control the companies protected by the United States.

Well, of course I have my own opinion, but this is from the category of a universal conspiracy. especially when you consider that there is an opinion that the Yankees prezik is preparing hyper inflation to write off public debt.

                    I did not dissemble. you just don’t understand what I mean. and we removed the missiles in sync with the shtatovskys; that was the purpose of the operation. I repeat, I wrote a little higher, missiles, missiles, and the main goal of the base was to listen to and open all types of communication Yankees. this base, now as air is needed. another thing is that not always desires coincided with reality. but now we are fully capable of restoring former power step by step.

                      I do not take into account rocketers yet. 4 motorized rifle regiments, 2 tank battalions, 40 fighters, 42 bombers. I don’t know about the number of S-75 air defense systems, and there were also anti-aircraft guns. AND! 12 RK project 183-P.

    Under this case, we can talk about the revival of the base in Cuba. With their sanctions, counter-sanctions can support the necessary organizations and have their own gesheft.

    Everyone smiled ?! - This is after a cold visit to Cuba. Sugarcane with us - always, on business, was tasty (not sweet). Well, it is necessary so, time is like that. Unfortunately, they still have not taken into account what Russia is.

    Common paranoia. They already don’t know where to put these sanctions ... stop I did not say that... lol
    The more enemies the United States has, the more friends Russia has. And as for the coastal complexes "Bastion" and air defense systems on the island, you need to think faster and coordinate the places of the base ...

    Well, to hell with these United States, but Russia should help or take the KUBU into Russia, provided that Cuba does not mind.
    The United States overlaid Russia, and in the face of the United States can only be given from CUBA.

    Tighten sanctions ... And the crickets are to blame for all this!
    By the way. Geophysicists from the institute, where I was lucky enough to work at the end of the USSR, constantly traveled to Cuba. From their words: there are plenty of minerals! Nickel, lead, silver - this is just what I now remember. With normal guardianship by the big states, Cuba can pretty well live purely by selling this raw material. And Cuban cigars, sugarcane and rum are brands for all time.
