Washington tightens the noose on Cuba by targeting officials and foreign banks
Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
Daily Sabah covers the new American sanctions as a clear pattern: after eliminating Maduro in Venezuela, Trump now targets Cuba, the last major leftist regime in the US backyard. The executive order specifically targets Cuban energy, defense, finance and security officials — plus foreign banks doing business with those entities, creating threats for Turkish, Chinese, Spanish and Canadian financial institutions present in Cuba. Turkey, which maintains commercial relations with Cuba, watches with concern as Washington expands its extraterritorial sanctions — a tool the US uses with increasing frequency against third countries.
