Poland overlaps the same longitudes as, say, Serbia, so this isn't really a full explanation. But the fact that former Yugoslavia is still isolated and othered from Western Europe means it's culturally and politically distinct. Cuba, while politically distinct from surrounding countries, is culturally very close to other Caribbean countries. So it's kind of a mixed bag, but I still think reasonably the only way to categorize Cuba is as a Western country despite the political difference.
