Barbara Lee, Jim McGovern, Gregory Meeks and Joaquín Castro, members of the U.S. House of Representatives, headed a letter to President Joe Biden, in which they ask to adopt a change of policy towards Cuba, and to eliminate the designation of that country as a sponsor of terrorism.
According to the letter, published on Lee’s official website, they urged “immediate relief from sanctions on the Cuban people,” who are suffering blackouts and a growing energy crisis, exacerbated by the impact of Hurricane Rafael.”
According to Prensa Latina, the congressmen requested that Biden eliminate the arbitrary designation of Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism, as well as expedite emergency humanitarian aid and technical assistance.
In addition, that he “issue safe harbor letters to address excessive sanctions enforcement, suspend sanctions that impede aid, and facilitate the repair and modernization of the island’s energy infrastructure.”
McGovern, last October 20, stated in his account in the social network X, that his country’s current policy directly contributed to Cuba’s energy problems, as it sanctions ships that transport oil to the Island and deprives the Caribbean nation of the foreign currency income it needs to import fuel and spare parts.
Cuba’s Political Bureau member and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, has expressed that his country appreciates “the voices denouncing the U.S. blockade, the main cause of the limitations and damages suffered by our people.”U.S. Congressmen ask Biden to take Cuba off terrorist list
