    The document discusses reasons why the US embargo on Cuba should remain in place. It provides examples of Cuba's reported involvement in terrorism, including shooting down two US civilian planes in 1996. Cuba also gives safe haven to members of the terrorist group ETA. The document also argues that Cuba has not met the conditions to lift the embargo, as outlined in US law, including legalizing political activity and respecting human rights. Lifting the embargo could benefit Cuba's dictator Fidel Castro instead of the Cuban people. In conclusion, the document argues Cuba needs more time to introduce democratic reforms before the embargo should be lifted.
