Cuba's biggest current shortages right now are energy and building materials like cement. Both of which are directly caused by the embargo, and worsened by the recent storm.

Yeah like with how the US sanctions on Zimbabwe were forced to be removed (for the most part, anyway), this will only end by direct action and protests in the US itself.

That is, if the civil unrest in the US due to the sanctions harms profits for the capitalists more than lifting the sanctions on Cuba does, they will choose the latter.

India and China don’t trust each other much at all

Seems to be changing now thanks to this summit

While it’s technically feasible, there’s little sign most BRICS members beyond sanctioned Russia and Iran are interested in joining a common depository

And that's why I don't mind the talks of more western sanctions on China. They'd have more incentive to go through with this that way.

Sanctions on the other member states like India and Brazil would probably hurt their working class too much though...

What makes you think they support either genocidal candidate? If ~~hitler~~ harris wants those votes, she just has to stop supporting genocide; it's not that hard.

Unless you think demanding someone to not support genocide is too much?

Damn she should probably change her policies to not supporting genocide if she wants those votes

I won't blame someone for not supporting a genocidal pig.
