America is the world police and that means everything they do is legal.
So the US embargo against Cuba is evil. But I think it is actually legal, according to international law. Because it is not a "blockade", but instead just sanctioning the shit out of anybody who sells oil to Cuba. Which is evil, but legal under international law.
Again, legal is not the same as ethical.
Legal or not in relation to international law and the US is an academic distinction. Laws don't apply.
The parent used the word "legal". Hence my reply.
