Keep in mind that for Cuba to achieve anything, the Soviet's, or another nation, had to supply it.
Where did Bernie have his honeymoon? It wasn't Cuba. From the WaPo:
"Bernie Sanders was bare-chested, towel-draped, sitting at a table lined with vodka bottles, as he sang 'This Land Is Your Land' to his hosts in the Soviet Union in the spring of 1988.
"The just-married socialist mayor from Vermont was on what he called 'a very strange honeymoon,' an official 10-day visit to the communist country, and he was enthralled with the hospitality and the lessons that could be brought home.
"'Let’s take the strengths of both systems,' he said upon completing the trip. 'Let’s learn from each other.'
"The Soviet sojourn has long been an extraordinary, if little understood, chapter in Sanders lore. He has for years used it to help explain his views about foreign policy, citing it as recently as last month."

It's certainly bad if the WaPo admits this, but of course, they then try to cover for Bernie.
Ask yourselves, for as long as Bernie has been in Congress, what has he relayed to his Moscow and Cuban handlers? How much have they paid him from their NYC, CPUSA, office?
