The United Nations General Assembly has once again voted overwhelmingly to end the U.S. embargo on Cuba. The resolution was supported by 187 member states, with only the United States and Israel voting against it, and Moldova abstaining. This marks the 32nd consecutive year that the UN has called for an end to the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by the U.S. on Cuba. The Biden administration continues to uphold the longstanding U.S. policy despite growing international opposition. Critics describe the embargo as a form of economic warfare that prevents Cuba from engaging in normal trade and accessing essential resources.
