The New Jersey-based on-line publication recalled that “In an appearance in New York hosted by the Council on Foreign Relations, the former secretary of state said: “I think we should advocate for the end of the embargo. We should advocate for normalizing relations and see what they (Cuban officials) do.”
The publication also explains that the economic blockade of Cuba has been enforced for over half a century now, while major U.S. presidential candidates have tip-toed carefully in discussing the lifting of the U.S. hostile policy on Cuba for fear of alienating voters in the state of Florida.
According to the Jersey Journal, Hillary Clinton believes that the younger generation of Cuban Americans will not go against her for having suggested that Washington should lift its blockade of Cuba, an extraterritorial policy that has affected the life of the Cuban people by inflicting huge damage in all sectors of society.
