Man stay off of this post, must be a 1000 trolls on it.. More ILLEGAL BS from this CROOK of a President!!! THIS IS ANOTHER UNCONSTITUTION ACTION ON 0BAMAs PART!!! The US-Cuban Embargo is controlled by multiple LAWS enacted by the US CONGRESS AND SIGNED BY MULTIPLE PRESIDENTS!!! IMPEACH THIS POSER ALREADY!!! The current relationship with Cuba CAN ONLY BE CHANGED BY LEGISLATION!!! The Cuban embargo is enforced mainly with six statutes: the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917, the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, the Cuba Assets Control Regulations of 1963, theCuban Democracy Act of 1992, the Helms–Burton Act of 1996, and the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act of 2000.[2] The Cuban Democracy Act was signed into law in 1992 with the stated purpose of maintaining sanctions on Cuba so long as the Cuban government refuses to move toward democratization and greater respect for human rights.[3] In 1996, Congress passed the Helms–Burton Act, which further restricted United States citizens from doing business in or with Cuba, and mandated restrictions on giving public or private assistance to any successor government in Havana unless and until certain claims against the Cuban government are met. In 1999, U.S. President Bill Clinton expanded the trade embargo even further by also disallowing foreign subsidiaries of U.S. companies to trade with Cuba. In 2000, Clinton authorized the sale of humanitarian U.S. products to Cuba.
