The annual Country Reports on Terrorism issued on Wednesday continued to list Cuba, Iran, Sudan and Syria as countries that have "repeatedly provided support for acts of international terrorism." Cuba has been on the list since 1982.  The designation carries with it economic sanctions beyond those already imposed in the US trade embargo of Cuba.
