"The situation is catastrophic, at least for Western countries. I can’t speak for Russia or say China,” a European commercial attache said, asking not to be identified due to the sensitivity of the matter.
Many Western banks have long refused Cuba-related business for fear of running afoul of U.S. sanctions and facing hefty fines, as well as the country's poor credit history.
Now, the combination of Trump’s aggressive stance, the complications of new sanctions and fear of being sued under Helms-Burton are deterring the few that remained.
PostFinance, the last Swiss bank to process Cuba-related transactions, informed clients last month it would no longer do so. Bank spokesman Rinaldo Tibolla said in an email PostFinance relied on a trust-based network of correspondent banks as well as access to U.S. dollar payments. "There is a risk that we will be excluded from this access if payments to Cuba, which may be subject to U.S. sanctions, are allowed to continue," he said.

Updated lyrics to Imagine, by John Lennon. To paint a more accurate picture of communism.
Imagine there's no bread
It's easy if you try
No tacos or hot sauce,
Nothing cold or fried,
Imagine all the people living in the gulags
Imagine there's no money
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to eat or drink
And no bacon too
Imagine all the people living short life spans ooooh
You may say I'm a commie
But I'm not the only one
And someday you will join us
Or we'll shoot you in the face
Imagine no possessions
Because all your stuff was redistributed
Lots of greed and hunger
But seriously please can I have a potato
Imagine all the people sharing all your stuff, yeah
You may say I'm a commie
But I'm not the only one
Did you say you don't like that?
Then it's the gulag for you, son

This is what Dawgfan loves. This is what Dawgfan wants. This is what Dawgfan says can lead the world to Utopia.

The Cuban president answered the unprecedented protests by authorizing police shootings on unarmed civilians — and, in his words, “summoning all the revolutionaries and all the communists” all over Cuba to confront the demonstrators.

was there for work one time and after we landed the local crew came on the airplane to clean it, after they finished one of the cleaners, after looking over his shoulder to make sure he wasn't being watched, started to look through the magazines that used to be on airplanes, he asked our agent if there's any way he could get one of these, about that time his boss came up and that ended that and they left, our agent gathered up a few magazines and went into their operations area, he approached the guy that wanted the magazines and offered them to him but the boss was in the room and the guy wouldn't even acknowledge our agent, wouldn't be surprised if ole baw didn't get some sort of punishment for fraternizing with infidel capitalist dogs
that cuban baw just wanted a sky mall catalog
