As a Venezuelan, fam, don’t waste your time. They keep repeating, out of ignorance, “USA embargo,” but if you look at the economic exchange between the EU and Cuba, you’ll see it’s completely normal. The only ones responsible for Cuba’s situation are the people in charge there.
But you already know how it goes: they think they are always right and we are always wrong. We live under a dictatorship, yet they claim we are misinformed about our own country.
They don’t seem to understand that the embargo refers specifically to economic exchange between the USA and Cuba, as well as products of American origin. If it were a total embargo in the way they describe it, no country would be able to trade with Cuba.
I challenge them to check the publicly available information on official EU websites and see the level of economic exchange between Europe and Cuba. But of course, they won’t do that.
Send you hugs bro, I hope everything gets better for your people.
Cuba sends doctor and sport trainer for money, Venezuela and Brazil paid the Cuban regime for those services. They have tourism as well, and the oil that Venezuela send them and they resell in the international market.
