Jan 23 (Reuters) – U.S. 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 it said were 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, Politico reported.
