No, Spain was not allowed to keep Cuba with the Treaty of Paris, which was signed in 1898 to end the Spanish-American War. Under the treaty, Spain ceded control of Cuba, as well as Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, to the United States. While Cuba was technically granted independence, the U.S. maintained significant influence over its affairs through the Platt Amendment, which was implemented in 1901.
