Aside the poverty and misery coupled with a total lack of freedoms, it is a country that is run by an elite who stay in power that is enforced by a brutal intelligence-security apparatus.
As for what will the Biden administration's policy towards Cuba? I predict no change for now. But within a year they will be reversing many of former President Trump's Cuban policies.
