Schwarzenegger accused for broken the American embargo of Cuba


Arnold Schwarzenegger seems to have been broken the US law - he is alleged to has broken the embargo to Cuba and Cuban products.

What a lot of american blogs are writing about now is that Arnold Schwarzenegger was headed to the Ottawa airport Wednesday when his motorcade made a detour to a hotel. There, Schwarzenegger picked up a Cuban Partagas cigar in a shop, with the $14.83 bill paid by an aide traveling with him. Under trade restrictions, U.S. citizens are prohibited from buying Cuban cigars anywhere in the world.

More about it here:
CBS NEWS
StarTribune

and here: Fow News
:
Schwarzenegger's office wouldn't confirm or deny that the governor indulged in a forbidden smoke while in Canada, where he was on a trade mission.
"He stopped and bought a cigar and smoked it on the way to the airport," spokesman Aaron McLear said.
Was it a banned Cuban cigar?
"There's no way of telling now because he smoked it," McLear said.

So thats a way to do criminal business: let the evidence transform to smoke.

And in Swedish in the tabloid Expressen.
