Washington Imposes Sanctions on Cuban President
SadaNews - The United States announced late Friday - Saturday, unprecedented sanctions against Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel, four years after anti-government protests that the communist island had never seen before.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio indicated in a post on the "X" platform that the State Department imposed restrictions on granting the Cuban president a visa to enter the country "due to his role in the brutality of the Cuban regime towards the Cuban people."
The sanctions also target, according to Rubio, "prominent figures in the Cuban regime" such as Defense Minister Alvaro Lopez Miera and Interior Minister Lazaro Alberto Alvarez Casas.
