WASHINGTON, the United States.- The president of Engage Cuba Coalition, James Williams, criticized the US Government’s decision to expand the list of entities on the island that are restricted to American citizens.

The State Department announced on Wednesday that 26 new bodies were added to the list as part of the measures of the Trump Administration to limit more the trade with the Caribbean island and the trips of the Americans.

Some 200 entities allegedly linked to defense and national security sector will be on the list, which prevents American citizen from making direct financial transactions with these structures.

The Trump Administration publishes the updated list of sanctioned entities in Cuba. It rearranges deck chairs on a sinking ship, Williams wrote on Twitter.
