If you want to go to Cuba, what is to stop you from going via any other
country in the region rather than directly from the U.S.?

It is not the going to Cuba that is the problem.
It is the coming back to the USA with the Cuban
stamp in your passport.

Heck, anyone could sail down to Cayman Brac, and
then go to Cuba from there. If you do though,
you'd better be ready to "lose" your passport and
get a new one at one of the US embassies in some
foreign country. A lot of hassle just to visit a
particular country.

Personally, I do not know why the USA is still
embargoing Cuba when we are running a HUGE trade
defecit with Communist China, and thereby funding
the modernization of the Chinese military.

However those are the rules as of today.
