US Senator in Favor of Lifting Blockade vs. Cuba
Matanzas, Cuba, Feb 23 (Prensa Latina) Senator Joseph Scarnotti, Republican leader of the Pennsylvania Senate, United States, said today that there is much to do between his state and Cuba, as asking the federal Government to lift the blockade.
During a press conference, Scarnotti said that there are bilateral business opportunities, for example in the exploration of gas and oil.
'In the United States we are one of the largest (states) buyers of liquor and spirits, and we are losing with the absence of Cuban rum', said Scarnotti.
He said that last year in Pennsylvania the population purchased $147 million USD in rums, nevertheless none of the trade brands were from Cuba.
