It’s a big week for American-Cuban relations this week with President Obama in the middle of a three-day trip to the island nation-–the first visit from an American president since 1928. The visit marks the symbolic end to the U.S. trade embargo that has blocked the countries from exchanging goods and services for the last 50 years. The ending of this embargo officially began on December 17, 2014 and since then American companies have slowly begun getting a footing on Cuban soil.
