“Much like with Iran, this administration clearly prefers working with and supporting governments that oppose American values and interests rather than strengthening our partnerships with pro-western allies. The Cuban government limits freedom of expression, association, assembly, and journalism and commits systematic human rights abuses. I don’t reward oppression, therefore I do not support lifting embargoes off Cuba,” Congressman Robert Pittenger said in a statement.
