Cuban foreign minister says improved relations with US are irreversible

Cuban foreign minister says improved relations with US are irreversible
BY CHRIS MILLS RODRIGO - 10/01/19 12:01 PM EDT



Cuba’s foreign minister on Tuesday told The Associated Press in an interview that he believes that improvements in relations made with the United States are irreversible despite the Trump administration's new sanctions.

Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla said despite the U.S. cutting off communication with most of Cuba, the progress made under former President Barack Obama has not be undone.

Rodríguez added that there’s a “historical trend that’s irreversible.”

The Obama administration restored formal relations with Cuba's communist government in December 2014, weakening the decades-old Cuban embargo.
