US-Cuban relations became strained as soon as Fidel Castro took over. His close ties to the Communist USSR made them a very close threat to the US. Castro had ousted a very pro US government. As a response, the US issued sanctions and enforced an embargo. No goods or people would pass between the 2 countries. Things became more strained when the USSR attempted to help arm Cuba with nuclear missiles. A threat so close could not be had. We avoided conflict when the ship carrying the missiles turned around within a short distance of our own battleships that had been sent to stop them. 

Relations today are turning. President Obama attempted to end the embargo and met with Raul Castro to try create more friendly terms between the 2 nations. There was a lot of progress that was made and the travel ban was lifted. Americans could freely travel to Cuba for the first time in over 50 years. President Trump has since returned to the old plan and has tightened the embargo on the Cuba. Opening trade with Cuba would benefit both nations. Cuba would be able to access more markets for their goods and gain money from tourism. America would gain access to new markets for its many goods.
