US facilitates course towards Cuba

Facilitating the U.S. course towards Cuba has to do with migration, finance, and air traffic. On the topic of migration from Cuba, US President Joe Biden will have to convince even his party comrades.

The US government has announced that it will lift a number of restrictions imposed on Cuba. The US State Department has announced that it will resume, among other things, a program that has been suspended for several years and that facilitates the migration of Cuban family members living in the US. The limit set for money transfers from the US to Cuba, a maximum of $ 1,000 per quarter, will also be lifted. In addition the number of flights between the two countries will increase.

"Small step in the right direction"

At the same time, the government in Washington stressed that financial sanctions against certain Cubans and certain institutions remain in force. The job is to "react" to the "humanitarian situation" in Cuba and give the population the opportunity for "economic development," said a senior US official.

The Cuban government hailed the announcement of the relief as "a small step in the right direction." .

Following the historic rapprochement between Cuba and the US in 2014-2016, under US President Barack Obama, relations between the two countries cooled significantly under President Donald Trump. His successor, Joe Biden, has so far upheld all sanctions imposed on Cuba, but is finally undertaking a cautious change of course.

"Wrong messages for the wrong people at the wrong time for the wrong reasons"

Relations between the communist state of the Caribbean and the US are politically extremely delicate not only now due to the large number of Cuban migrants. The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee of the same party as Biden, Bob Menendez, declared without wasting time, that: "Today's announcement carries the risk that the wrong message is sent to the wrong people at the wrong time and for the wrong reasons. "

At the end of April, the US and Cuba held for the first time in four years direct diplomatic-level talks on migration. Among other things, they talked about the implementation of the existing migration agreement, given the recent increase in illegal migration from the socialist Caribbean country to the United States. The Cuban Foreign Ministry criticized, among other things, that the US does not respect the bilateral agreement to guarantee 20,000 visas a year for Cubans. A senior US official said that figure would now be reached as soon as possible.

The staff of the US Embassy in Havana was reduced to a minimum a few years ago due to the "Havana Syndrome". Since 2016, dozens of American diplomats living in the Cuban capital and members of their families have complained of strange headaches, hearing loss, dizziness and vomiting. Such complaints were later reported in other parts of the world. A report by the US Secret Service in February this year states that the cases of "Havana syndrome" were intentionally caused by some kind of electromagnetic radiation.
