"The US isn't going to sell oil to Cuba." "The US will be Cuba's exclusive supplier of oil." Are these not polar opposites? | ||

No. They are temporally distinct. The statement (true or not) is that the US is imposing blockade so that Cuba is forced to cut ties with other nations and depend solely on the US. The blockade state is an embargo. They would no longer be embargoed in the end state where they depend solely on the US. | ||
