ON May 2, the Trump Administration decided to enforce Title 111 of the Helms-Burton Act. Title 111 authorises US nationals with claims to confiscated properties in Cuba to file suits in US courts against persons that may be “trafficking” in that property.

Title 111 of the Helms-Burton Act has not been enforced before, though the Act was enacted in 1996; it was signed into law by then US President Bill Clinton.
