Detailed explanation-3: -As relations between Cuba and the United States deteriorated rapidly after the Cuban Revolution of 1959 and the resulting expropriation and nationalisation of businesses, the island became cut off from its traditional market by an ongoing embargo and a travel ban was imposed on U.S. citizens visiting Cuba.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cuba is open for travel, and it’s generally safe to travel to Cuba.
