I wonder how things would change if the US dropped its futile embargo (not a blockade). The Cuban government seems to largely justify its existence by invoking the US. What then if the US had normalized relationships and treated Cuba as a trading partner? I know it would piss off the Cuban diaspora, but it's going to need to happen at some point.

Nice sucking up to US Imperialism.

Could you clarify? I think the US has bungled its relationship with Cuba since the revolution.
