Regime change? A military takeover? Trump's thorny Cuba options [View all]

WASHINGTON — Pursuing an economic deal. Regime change. Military operations. Nothing at all.

After imposing an oil embargo on Cuba that has pushed the island to the brink of a humanitarian crisis, the Trump administration seemed poised to impose its will on Cuba. But as President Donald Trump begins to look beyond Iran, his options on what to do with Cuba appear varied and thorny — and all of them fraught with political landmines.

Launch a military strike and the U.S. could be saddled with an unpopular nation-building mission. Cut a deal with Havana and risk a revolt from Cuban American lawmakers in Trump's party — who bristle at the thought of negotiating with the regime that forced their families into exile.

In many ways, it's a lose-lose-lose situation, said Michael Bustamante of the Cuban and Cuban-American Studies at the University of Miami.
