The increase of tourists in Cuba was because there was no Americans there.

And rightly so. Vacation was not a recognized reason for an American going to Cuba. There was a limit I believe of $100 spending or something of the sort which I'm sure was largely ignored. I don't like knowing going in I'm going to break the rules as the more times you do break rules increases the chance you will be caught breaking rules.

I just paid the $160 visa fee today for my step-daughter.  

This is another interesting point. I wonder how many Filipinos are paying the $160 application fee vs how many Americans are paying the fee for family members?

I think Americans tend to overvalue their worth as tourists.  Here is a chart of tourism in Cuba after the Americans were required to stay away.

If the place has desirability then tourists will come, despite Dutertes best efforts to keep them away.

In the spirit of the chart, how much steeper would the graph be if Americans were also visiting? No one said if there were fewer American tourist there would be fewer other nationality tourists.
