The United States Embassy in Cuba is reopening visa and consular services Wednesday, the first time it has done so since a spate of unexplained health incidents among diplomatic staff in 2017 slashed the American presence in Havana.
In late December, US authorities reported stopping Cubans 34,675 times along the Mexico border in November, up 21% from 28,848 times in October. While the vast majority of Cuban migrants head to the US via flights to Nicaragua and cross by land at the US border with Mexico, thousands more have also taken a dangerous voyage by sea. They travel 90 miles to the Florida coast, often arriving in rickety, precariously constructed boats packed with migrants.AP
“Engaging in these talks underscores our commitment to pursuing constructive discussions with the government of Cuba where appropriate to advance U.S. interests,” the U.S. Embassy said in a statement in November following an American delegation’s visit to Cuba. While relations have always been tense between Cuba and the US, they were heightened following the embassy closure and the Trump administration’s tightening of sanctions on Cuba.
