Why do so many people support ending sanctions on Cuba, but not North Korea (lemmygrad.ml)

Lots of more popular support for ending the embargo on Cuba, and there's even a UN vote where all countries aside from 5 voted to ending the embargo on Cuba, but there's very little international support for ending the sanctions on North Korea. Does anyone know why this is? Surely if you want to end sanctions on Cuba, it's only logical to want to end sanctions on North Korea too?

and the one thing that the US really wants from it - a naval base - it gets to have whether the Cuban government likes it or not.

I've never understood how that can be. Went is this?
