It'd be a lie to say I didn't predict Argentina to turn this way, but I still can't believe the world was introduced to specifically Javier Milei as the one to do it

Why do we need to do favors for the people of other countries to just force them in line with our policies? Why can't we just let Cuba trade with the US, China and Russia, and the EU, keeping their connection with their usual countries in Latin America and Africa? Easing a brutal foreign policy that has removed billions in value from another country only by strict condition is pretty fucked up. With all the talk with the US and their freedom, we should really let Cuba have real freedom, their own freedom.

Unfortunately wouldn't be so meaningful without also doing the same for North Korea. North Korea and Cuba are brotherly nations with similar short-term and long-term goals, with great admiration for each other. There is no excuse for most sanctions on these two countries, even by the standards of the US, and each country has made it abundantly clear that they will do everything they can to keep their entire populations educated, fed, housed, and politically active.
