CAMPAIGNERS have welcomed the announcement that the United States has removed Cuba from its arbitrary list of countries sponsoring terrorism.
A statement by President Joe Biden on Tuesday night said: “The US maintains as a central objective of its policy the need to achieve greater freedom and democracy, greater respect for human rights and greater freedom of enterprise in Cuba.
“To achieve these objectives, practical engagement with Cuba and the Cuban people will be necessary, going beyond what is described in the National Security Presidential Memorandum (NSPM-5) and taking into account recent developments in Cuba and the changing regional and global context.”
