President ⁠Donald Trump's administration is considering imposing a total blockade on oil imports to Cuba as part of possible new tactics ⁠to drive regime change in the Caribbean country, Politico reported on Friday, citing three people said to be familiar with the ⁠plan.

While no decision has been made on whether to approve that move, ⁠such an escalation ⁠has been sought by some critics of the Cuban government in the Trump administration and backed ⁠by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
