U.S. sanctions and traveling to Cuba
- Share via
THANKS for the wonderful, unbiased article on Cuba, “Cuba, Suspended in Time,” Jan. 15]. Finally, an article free of anti-Castro jabs. I’ve been to Cuba four times, and your article was right on.

IT is a shame that Americans are unable to travel to Cuba in an open way. Our government has tried for years to get rid of Fidel Castro. We have sent hit men to try to kill him and imposed years of economic sanctions.
By my count, he is dealing with the 10th American president since he came to power. What is the point in continuing with sanctions? The only reason they continue is because of the very strong anti-Castro contingent in Florida. What is interesting is that the Cubans in Florida are only punishing the Cubans they left behind.
