The US imposed sanctions on Cuba have been in place since 1960.
And of course the Americans have every right to invade a country - like Iraq, based on propaganda induced alleged intelligence on 'weapons of mass destruction' - but does the US not have such type weapons - perhaps some other nation should take similar steps to rid of US of it's 'mass arsenal of weapons'? But of course any nation that would/could try to would be labelled terrorists. American democracy - a sort of do as I say but not as I do. AIMO
