'Far Too Little, Far Too Late,' Say Critics as Biden Finally Removes Cuba From Terror List

In a long-overdue act of reparation, President Joe Biden has announced the removal of Cuba from the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism list, rectifying a Cold War-era policy that has unjustly isolated the island nation and impeded its economic and social progress. Critics of the decision, likely emboldened by outdated and punitive ideologies, ignore the humanitarian implications and the potential for renewed diplomacy and collaboration in the region.

By deciding to remove Cuba from the U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism list, President Joe Biden weakens America's stance against authoritarian regimes, potentially endangering national security and betraying the victims of Cuba's oppressive government. This move, seemingly an olive branch to a longstanding adversary, undermines the fight for human rights and democracy, emboldening the Cuban regime while providing scant evidence of reciprocal benefit to the U.S. or Cuban citizens yearning for freedom.
