Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Cuba, said that the return on Friday of Cubans who were stranded in the United States is the result of the work of both governments.
Twenty days after the terrorist attack on the Cuban Embassy in Washington, the U.S. government is still silent. However, it included Havana in a unilateral list of countries that “do not cooperate” in the fight against terrorism, which has been described by Carlos Fernandez de Cossio, General Director for U.S. Affairs at the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MINREX), as a political, deliberate and deeply dishonest act.
On September 29, 2017, U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson announced the decision to significantly reduce the diplomatic staff of the American Embassy in Havana and to withdraw all family members, arguing that there have been attacks on American government officials in Cuba, which have affected their health.
