Explanation:

Diplomatic relations between Cuba and the United States have been influenced by mutual interest, especially since before the struggles for independence. Plans to buy the island were revealed by the United States on several occasions. While the Spanish influence in the Caribbean diminished, the United States progressively gained a position of political and economic domination over the island, with a significant weight of foreign investment, and most of the imports and exports, as well as a strong political influence.

After the Cuban Revolution of 1959, relations deteriorated substantially, and have since been marked by tension and confrontation. The United States does not have formal diplomatic relations with Cuba and has maintained an embargo for which the commercial relations of US companies with Cuba are illegal. The diplomatic representation of the United States in Cuba is held by the United States Office of Interests in Havana, as occurs by Cuba in Washington; Both are officially part of the respective embassies in Switzerland.
