Realist Perspective on US-Cuba Relations: A Critical Analysis

    The United States of America emerged as a dominant state in the world in the aftermath of WW II along with the USSR. Where the USSR fell and disintegrated in 1991, the USA kept its dominance and control over the world, especially across the American continent. The USA and Cuba had a long co-existing history, things took a strange turn after Fidel Castro took power by throwing Batista out. The USA's trade embargo on Cuba after the event added more fuel to the fire. With the disintegration of the USSR, the American foreign policy towards Cuba remained the same. Although in the 21st century, the Obama administration reviewed the US policy towards Cuba and showed some softness towards the island nation, it didn't make much difference. The main idea behind this research is to explore the theoretical Perspective on US-Cuba relations and give some policy recommendations for improved relations.
