YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

As the United States is set to resume diplomatic relations with Cuba after more than 50 years of an embargo, we look back in the Washington Week Vault to the early months of the Obama presidency when the administration eased economic sanctions and loosened travel restrictions for Cuban Americans hoping to visit family on the island nation only 90 miles off the Florida coast. The Obama administration has "achieved a big political effect at almost no political cost," NPR's Tom Gjelten said of the changes announced in April 2009.
