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 than before to vote against, or abstain on, the annual UN General Assembly resolution condemning Washington's decades-long embargo on Cuba. The resolution has traditionally passed overwhelmingly, so the shift in votes marks a diplomatic win for the US and is drawing attention to its lobbying efforts at the United Nations.
Why now: The US appears to have broken years of near-unanimous UN opposition to its Cuba embargo through successful diplomacy.
