Cuba's relationship with America


This image showed that Cuba have a negative attitude towards America. They feel it is the embargo that is the root cause of this, and the main barrier that is straining their relations. This is most probably linked back to the Cuban missile crisis in 1962. Although most countries in the UN want the embargo lifted the US seem reluctant, and Cuba seem to have developed a hatred toward America because of this. Cuba feels America is isolating itself, especially because of the banning of trading between Cuba and America, as well as travel between the two regions. As America is large (in land mass and international authority), Cuba feel that America is 'calling the shots' in political affairs. An almost jealous attitude as developed in Cuba because of it, and due to their size, I think they feel that they cannot compete politically.
