US suspends private charter flights to Cuba
The United States announced Thursday it is suspending all private charter flights to Cuba, intensifying its drive to starve the Havana government of revenue over its human rights record and support for Venezuela's leftist president.
The announcement marks the latest hardening of US policy toward Cuba under Trump, who reversed a thaw in relations with Havana that began under his predecessor Barack Obama. Cuba has been under a US embargo since 1962. Trump has ramped up sanctions, canceling or suspending many of the agreements made under Obama.
