I hope they can collect if they win!
We will destroy you with little men carrying briefcases!
How does such a suit even work? Who ovetloons the cases? Who pays out? They could “ein: all day long, but nothing would happen without enforcement.
*overlooks
*win. LOL I hate my phone sometimes
So long as they accept payment in cigars.
Michael Corleone will dispatch Tom Hayden ASAP.
Yeah, that’s a whole load of cigars. Cuba has nothing whatsoever to pay any kind of settlement to Exxon.
Blood from a stone???
The Castros have plenty of money.
[[Title III had been suspended every six months by every U.S. president since the law was approved in 1996.]]
That includes Dubya for anyone not paying attention.
I like ovetloons better. It’s right up there with covfeef.
Sure it does. Their most valuable asset is called “land”. Get a big enough judgement and conduct the mother of all real estate auctions.
The hoped-for avenue of collection/enforcement is against non-Cuban companies that are benefiting from the expropriated assets. For example, one of the cases, Carnival Cruises is a defendant because it’s now using Cuban ports and docks stolen from the plaintiffs. Similar situation with European companies doing business in Cuba. If you can establish that, say, a German company is now using or benefiting from the stolen asset, you can target that German company. Maybe you can’t enforce a judgment in Cuba but you can enforce it against the German company’s U.S. operations.
Actually, that's "covfefe."
An adjustment of claims against Cuba for confiscated property has to happen before relations and trade is normalized, and, ironically, this may be one step in that direction.

Communists steal things? Could be fake news.
Hey Trump, now give ExxonMobil the go-ahead to get reimbursement from Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Libya, and Venezuela for nationalizing ExxonMobil’s oil concessions, discoveries, wells, and processing facilities.
