Trump Revokes Biden's Cuba, West Bank, And AI Policies

Former U.S. President and Republican presidential candidate Trump meets with supporters in West Palm Beach

President Donald Trump has recently taken action to revoke several executive orders implemented by the Biden administration. These orders included withdrawing Cuba's designation as a state sponsor of terror, applying sanctions on Jewish settlers in the West Bank, and addressing the risks associated with artificial intelligence.

The decision to rescind these orders was made during a mass reversal of Biden-era policies that Trump signed at Capital One arena shortly after being sworn in as the 47th president.

It is important to note that Biden had only recently removed Cuba from the list of state sponsors of terror. The specific reasons for reversing the Biden administration's actions were not detailed in the orders signed by Trump on Monday.

Sanctions on Jewish settlers in the West Bank were lifted.
Trump revoked Biden's orders on Cuba's terror designation.
Concerns about risks of artificial intelligence were no longer addressed.

In February 2024, Biden had imposed sanctions on certain Jewish settlers in the West Bank who were accused of inciting violence. Additionally, in 2023, Biden had issued an executive order focused on monitoring and regulating the potential risks associated with artificial intelligence.

These recent developments highlight the ongoing shifts in policy direction between the current and previous administrations. The revocation of these executive orders signifies a significant change in approach towards issues such as international relations, conflict resolution, and technological advancements.
