Trump’s new Cuba crackdown puts US at odds with Canada and Europe
US will allow lawsuits against firms using property nationalised by the revolution, cap remittances and restrict ‘non-family’ travel
Donald Trump has taken another step towards reversing Barack Obama’s historic rapprochement with Cuba with a measure that earned swift criticism from allies in Canada and Europe.
The US announced on Wednesday that it would enable lawsuits against foreign companies that use properties nationalised by the communist government after Fidel Castro’s 1959 revolution.
