More Than Half the U.S. Wants Cuba to Be Sovereign

Fifty-seven percent of people in the United States would like to see Cuba remain an independent nation, while 18% want the island to become a U.S. territory and 4% would prefer to see it as a U.S. state, according to a recent poll. The survey, conducted by Canadian public opinion research firm Research Co., also asked the around 1,000 participants the same questions regarding Canada, Greenland, Mexico, Panama and Puerto Rico — other countries Trump has threatened with military intervention. Over half thought the countries should remain independent.
