You know one of the reasons why Cuban tourism was then wasn't then now is so popular? Because Muricans can't go there. Seriously. People would flock from all over North America, except Murica, to Cuba and get to enjoy a civil holiday devoid of a bunch of angry yelling tourists demanding they do thing a certain correct way.

Countries like this in the world today in 2024, will be just fine. American tourism is declining to the point of irrelevance for everybody but the 1% Americans. The Chinese have the crown but COVID paused their global ambitions. There are many tourists that try to go out of their way to avoid American hotspots when on holiday for good reason.

You decided to use a country that can’t even feed itself and is currently going through the worst economic crisis in it’s history as your example of a success because of a lack of American tourists… Riiigghhhtt

Just like Iran, these issues are caused by the US and economic warfare, ie sanctions. Learn about how your country enables Genocide all over the world before replying again.

Lol, you picked the example using that big brain of yours bro. It’s amazing that you think an absolute failure of a state like Cuba is a shining example of how a Caribbean country survives without American tourists.
