"Abject failure": Biden slams Trump on Venezuela, Cuba policy
Source: NBC News
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden slammed President Donald Trumps failed policies on Cuba and Venezuela during an interview with NBCs local Miami station that aired on Sunday.
"Id try to reverse the failed Trump policies that inflicted harm on Cubans and their families," said Biden, adding that Trump "has done nothing to advance democracy and human rights; on the contrary, the crackdown on Cubans by the regime has gotten worse under Trump, not better."
Biden called Cuban Americans the best ambassadors for freedom in Cuba and said he would ease travel restrictions to the island and limits on remittances that Cuban Americans send their families, which were policies tightened by the Trump administration.
Biden said he would return to the Obama-era policy of greater engagement with Cuba during an interview with the CBS Miami station. This time, he said he would pursue a policy of advancing the interests "and empowering the Cuban people to freely determine their own outcome, their own future."
