Leaders of the Americas prepare to gather in Los Angeles on June 6 for their ninth regional summit. But Washington has announced Cuba will be excluded, arguing the Caribbean nation does not meet the required democratic standards.

United States-Cuban relations have been hostile ever since Fidel Castro's 1959 revolution. In 2016, President Obama visited the island, calling the occasion an "historic opportunity" to leave the Cold War behind.
