It specified seven provisions for the relinquishment of United States troops enduring in Cuba at the conclusion of the Spanish–American War, and an eighth provision that Cuba approves a treaty af-firming these seven provisions. It outlined the expressions of Cuban–U.S. relationships to naturally be an unbalanced one of U.S. domination of Cuba.
Thus if Cuba enter into a trade agreement with any of the Asian countries it would be violated the Platt Amendment.
