Trump Reinstates Hard-Line Cuba Policy

President Trump has signed a presidential memorandum to reinstate strict U.S. policies toward Cuba, reversing the Biden administration’s late-term efforts to ease restrictions. The order reimposes the ban on tourism, tightens travel rules, and directs the Treasury to audit travel records. The move also expands the blacklist of Cuban officials and entities tied to the regime, blocks more individuals from U.S. financial access, and sets up a task force to improve internet freedom on the island.
