Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Cuba officially off U.S. terror blacklist
The move looks at least historic. The U.S.
removed its neighboring island country from its list of countries that sponsor
terrorism. It’s the first step to restore normal relationship, diplomatically
and economically. Currently, they don’t have embassies or trade businesses, so
they need to start and keep official and regular diplomatic dialogues. The next
step seems to be the lift of the embargo on Cuba by the U.S. that's been in
place since 1960. However, there are concerns and worries in America to treat
Cuba in a same way as other countries because of their communism and
dictatorship regime.
The distance between Havana and Key West,
Florida is only 180km, which was swam by a 65-year-old woman, and another 180km
to reach Miami. While one senior citizen can reach the other shore of the water,
diplomats still seem to face difficulties to normalize the bilateral relationship.
Is this one of the second-term president’s efforts
to mark a symbolic milestone during his leaving the office?
Enjoy reading and learning this new move to
normalize a relationship between neighboring countries.
