The Secretary of State, Michael R. Pompeo, has officially classified the Republic of Cuba as a state that supports international terrorism. This designation follows specific U.S. laws including the Export Administration Act of 1979 and the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. The determination requires this decision to be published in the Federal Register.
Simple Explanation
The United States has said that Cuba is helping bad people who cause trouble in the world, and because of that, they are putting them on a special list. This means they will watch Cuba closely and might not give them as much help as before.
