The article is devoted to exploring the role of the U.S. Embassy in Havana following the Cuban Revolution and its significance in shaping U.S.-Cuba relations under Fidel Castro's leadership.The purpose of the article is to consider the embassy's mission, challenges faced, and its impact on the evolving diplomatic landscape between the two countries during the late 1950s and early 1960s.The research methodology is based on the principle of historicism and problem-chronological and complex approaches.Analysis of archival documents encompassed an extensive review of diplomatic records, memoranda, reports, correspondence, and various official documents linked to the functioning of the U.S. Embassy in Havana post the Cuban Revolution.Through contextual analysis, the study scrutinized historical, political, social, and economic conditions that significantly shaped the operations and activities of the U.S. Embassy in Havana subsequent to the Cuban Revolution.The scientific novelty of the study consists in an attempt to identify and analyze the complexity and sequence of diplomatic interactions, as well as uncover patterns in the actions of the United States and Cuba in the initial months following the Cuban Revolution.It particularly focuses on the uncertainty and primary motives underlying the diplomatic decisions of both countries during this period.Conclusions: The analysis reveals that the tensions between the United States and Cuba during the late 1950s and early 1960s were rooted in historical issues and entrenched diplomatic strategies, hindering the development of a new framework for interaction.Despite the embassy's diligent efforts, these endeavors failed to alleviate the escalating strain, eventually leading to the severance of diplomatic ties
