Haiden Lin · Answer 1

Letter C is the correct answer. In February of 1962, President John F Kennedy announced an embargo - considered an economic sanction - against Cuba. The economic, financial and commercial embargo forced Cuba to become economic isolated.

The embargo's main idea was to isolate Fidel Castro politically so his government would be overthrown by popular demands, but it didn't happen. Nevertheless, this economic sanction is the longest lasting embargo in history.
