Costa Rica breaks historical UN stance, backs US embargo on Cuba

Costa Rica, for the first time, voted with the US against the annual non-binding UN resolution condemning the embargo on Cuba, breaking its historical alignment with the global majority. This marks a notable shift in Central American diplomatic alignment, with only Nicaragua and Panama supporting the majority position, while Guatemala and El Salvador abstained. The move signals a potential realignment in regional geopolitics, though its long-term implications remain uncertain.
