      To weaken/further humiliate the US? To market their green technology? For humanitarian purposes?

      Take your pick, it’s some combination of the three.

        It’s definitely all three, but I just want to point out that Cuba I believe has more doctors per capita than any other country and sends medical aid all over the world. They developed their own Covid vaccine because they had no access to the others thanks to the blockade. It’s not like they have nothing to offer.
