Cuban-American relations refer to the diplomatic, economic, and cultural interactions between the United States and Cuba. These relations have been historically complex, especially since the Cuban Revolution in 1959, which led to the establishment of a communist government in Cuba. The U.S. responded with trade embargoes and restrictions, significantly impacting both nations. In recent years, there have been attempts to improve relations, particularly during the administration of President Barack Obama, who eased some restrictions and reestablished diplomatic ties in 2015. However, subsequent administrations have varied in their approach, leading to ongoing debates about the future of these relations.
