The Democratic candidate to the White House, Hillary Clinton, said Friday that his Republican opponent, Donald Trump, could violate us laws to explore business in Cuba in 1998.

La candidata demócrata a la Casa Blanca, Hillary Clinton, afirmó este viernes que su oponente republicano, Donald Trump, pudo violar las leyes estadounidenses al explorar negocios en Cuba en 1998.
“Hoy hemos sabido de sus esfuerzos para hacer negocios en Cuba que parecen violar las leyes de EE.UU. y que sin duda burlan la política exterior estadounidense”, declaró Clinton en su avión a periodistas.
La ex primera dama criticó, además, que Trump “ha engañado repetidamente a la gente al responder preguntas sobre si estaba intentando hacer negocios en Cuba”.
La revista Newsweek reveló que en 1998 Trump exploró negocios en Cuba a través de la consultora Seven Arrows Investment and Development para saltarse el embargo que prohibía inversiones en la isla.
Según Newsweek, Trump Hotels se gastó al menos 60.000 euros para explorar oportunidades de negocio con el Gobierno de Fidel Castro utilizando una consultora y ocultando los motivos bajo justificaciones humanitarias.
En aquel momento, toda inversión en la isla sin la aprobación expresa del Gobierno estadounidense era ilegal, aunque ya existían presiones para relajar las sanciones económicas, algo que ha acabado ocurriendo bajo la presidencia del demócrata Barack Obama, que ha restablecido las relaciones diplomáticas entre los dos países.
Da la casualidad que en 1999 Trump, que por aquel entonces comenzaba sus primeros pasos en política, dio un discurso ante la comunidad cubana de Miami (Florida) en la que criticó a Castro y dijo que no invertiría un dólar en la isla sin un cambio de régimen.
Fuentes del Departamento del Tesoro aseguraron a Newsweek que, pese a que no pueden probar categóricamente que la empresa de Trump no recibió autorización para invertir en Cuba, las posibilidades de que un casino estadounidense intentara gastar dinero en la isla eran “básicamente cero”.
Hace apenas diez días, Trump prometió durante un acto en Miami que, de ser elegido presidente, revertirá la apertura de Estados Unidos hacia Cuba promovida por Obama a menos que se produzcan “libertades religiosas y políticas” en la isla.
