Cuba Embargo

The U.S. imposed a limited economic embargo against Fidel Castro's Cuba in 1960, during the Eisenhower administration. The embargo was imposed after Cuba nationalized banks, oil refineries, and other U.S. business interests there. Earlier in 1960, President Eisenhower approved a secret plan to overthrow the Castro regime. The plan included a propaganda campaign and the organization of a paramilitary force to invade the island.In 1963, after the Cuban Missile Crisis and the embarrassment at the Bay of Pigs, the U.S. expanded its unilateral economic embargo of Cuba. Its purpose: "The basic goal of the sanctions is to isolate Cuba economically and deprive it of U.S. dollars."
In my opinion I believe that the embargo between Cuba and the United States have not been effective. The Cuba Embargo is only hearting the U.S economy, its international image and Cuba’s people. Lifting the embargo would greatly benefit both the United States and Cuba.
