Someone is gonna have to enforce it.
Who is willing to send a navy? Anyone? Yea that’s what really matters. UN votes are just performative.

Would it really take a navy?
If all these countries started sending cargo ships to Cuba loaded with supplies, what would the US actually do? Blow them up?

I’m not sure why you find that unlikely at this point…?

If we compare it to the trade war with China, the US only kept it up for a few weeks and backed down. There are material realities that force the US to bend, it actually can’t just do whatever it wants. So, if there was an international flotilla sent to Cuba to deliver much needed supplies, the US would retaliate at first and then back down when it realized the entire world was against it.

Not under some other administration. But this administration I’m not so sure.

Trump is a paper tiger, he was defeated by Ansar Allah in Yemen and China just defeated his stupid trade war.
