Nearly every country in the United Nations General Assembly told the United States on Tuesday to lift its four-decade old economic embargo against Cuba in a record vote of 182 of 191 countries to 4 with 1 abstention. The vote, held for the 14th consecutive year, was on a resolution calling for Washington to lift the U.S. trade, financial and travel embargo, particularly its provisions on penalizing foreign firms.
