russia blasts trump for putting cuba on the terrorist list  not going well is it? t is likewise indisputable that putting cuba back on the sanctions list is aimed at further tightening financial and economic restrictions with the aim of destabilising the country and forcing a change of government in cuba. clearly, this approach clearly considers the severely negative impact these restrictions will have on the quality of life of the cuban population. could it be that provoking social discontent is the ultimate goal? it is regrettable that, after more than 60 years of harsh sanctions and political pressure on havana, washington still refuses to recognise the futility of imposing its will on the cuban people.  russia, for its part, will continue to provide cuba with the necessary support in upholding its sovereignty and in its demands for the immediate and complete lifting of the unlawful and inhumane economic, trade, and financial blockade imposed by the united states. we will also advocate for removing havana from the list of alleged state sponsors of terrorism. foreign ministry spokeswoman maria zakharovas comment (  ews/1992386/) on president trump administrations decision to put cuba back on the us list of state sponsors of terrorism
