Duration - 9:17 [a video about Cuba from the news collective Belly Of The Beast]

Donald Trump has justified economic warfare against Cuba, including the oil blockade, in the claim that the island somehow represents a national emergency for the United States.

Belly of the Beast journalist Liz Oliva Fernández debunks six of the reasons the Trump administration has given to claim that a small island of 10 million people is threatening the most powerful country in the world.
