Mmm....The last bastion of Communism in the Carribean looks to be coming to an end. A great tourist destination and country like nowhere else on earth. A country stuck in the past that has depended on countries like Venezula , China and Russia for trade. My first thoughts were 'what a shame ...it will never be the same again once the Americans move in , and they surely will. It is something however that the Cubans have longed for and the country desperately needs.

It seems like North Korea are now entirely on their own behind their little iron curtain.

There will be an explosion in property on the Malecon replacing all the old run down stuff - some people will get very rich, and the place will never be the same again. I hope they preserve some of it.

"Republican Senator Marco Rubio has criticised the new US policy, saying it would do nothing to address the issues of Cuba's political system and human rights record"
Oh, the irony.

They've found some oil there, haven't they?.
Democracy is just around the corner when that happens.

Canadian oil companies have been there for years , have the USA and it's allies lifted the trade embargo Hope it doesn't turn into another place with McDonald's everywhere and the UK will now open diplomatic channels

I like Cuba especially the libre. I've been once and would love to go back there.
