While Cuba witnesses rare protests, Biden walks a tightrope on US policy

Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL), an influential critic of the regime in Havana, advised the Biden administration in a letter Monday to follow a series of steps “to support the Cuban people in their struggle for freedom.” This assistance includes opening satellite Internet access to Cubans, imposing sanctions on Cuban officials directly responsible for orders and actions that lead to violence against protesters, and most importantly, “issuing a clear and unequivocal statement that current US policies toward the regime have been implemented by the Trump administration It will stay in place.”
