U.S. Military Option for Cuba Fades

“The Trump administration’s Cuba strategy is increasingly focused on ramping up sanctions and economic pressure rather than deploying military force to break the island’s Communist leadership,” Bloomberg reports.

“U.S. attention is now centered on cutting off all revenue sources for the regime rather than any military or special forces operation similar to the January raid that seized Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro.”

“The strategy is aimed at creating fractures in the ranks and room for negotiation in a government that’s rejected U.S. calls for change after almost seven decades of one-party rule.”
