Cuba's Terrorism Tag: A Look Back

On January 14, 2025, the U. S. government made a big announcement about Cuba. They said Cuba hasn't supported international terrorism for the past six months. Plus, Cuba promised not to support terrorism in the future. This decision follows U. S. laws and is backed by the President. It also affects how the U. S. handles foreign aid and exports. Let's break it down. The U. S. used to think Cuba supported terrorism. But now, they've changed their mind. This doesn't mean Cuba supported terrorism in the past, but it shows a shift in how the U. S. sees Cuba. It's like when a friend does something good, and you start to like them more. Think about it: Why might the U. S. have thought Cuba supported terrorism before? And why did they change their mind? It's like a puzzle, and each piece helps us understand the bigger picture. This decision doesn't just affect Cuba. It also affects how the U. S. gives foreign aid and exports goods. It's like when you get a good report card, and your parents reward you. But instead of a reward, Cuba gets a chance to show it's changed.
