I believe this legislation will expedite the transition to a democratic government in Cuba. Whether you are for or against this bill. no one disagrees that this should be the policy of our government. Denying United States visas to those who trade with Cuba and discouraging International Financial Institutions assistance to Cuba are necessary steps that will strengthen the embargo and bring about the downfall of the Castro regime. One of the significant provisions of this bill is the section dealing with property. It is difficult to accept the argument that Fidel Castros confiscation of property belonging to naturalized citizens should not be subject to a remedy under the domestic laws of the United States. Confiscations of property belonging to U.S. nationals at the time of the taking clearly violated international law. These takings were done to retaliate against U.S. nationals for acts of the U.S.
