US persuades more countries to oppose UN resolution on Cuba embargo

Original: US sways more countries to oppose UN resolution condemning its Cuba embargo

The United States has convinced more countries to vote against a United Nations resolution condemning the decades-long US embargo on Cuba. The annual UN General Assembly vote has for years overwhelmingly criticized the embargo, so a shift in the number of countries backing Washington marks a notable diplomatic change and is drawing attention to US lobbying efforts ahead of the vote.

Why now: The annual UN vote on the Cuba embargo is a recurring diplomatic benchmark, and a shift in countries' positions signals changing US influence.
