Trump announces new sanctions against Cuban government

U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday ordered new sanctions against Cuba, including the targeting of foreign banks that work with the government, as well as immigration restrictions.

In an executive order, Trump imposed sanctions on people involved in the energy, mining, and other sectors in the communist-run island, as well as anyone determined to be engaged in "serious human rights abuses."
