The Daily Caller reported Monday that President Trump will rollback President Obama’s Cuba policy and the shift in policy is bipartisan in nature:
“Two sources told TheDC that the development is due to the behind-the-scenes efforts of Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Democratic New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez and Republican Florida Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart.
This information coming from an anti-embargo group, which spoke on the condition of anonymity, was confirmed Sunday by John Kavulich of the nonpartisan U.S.-Cuba Trade and Economic Council. “The Trump Administration has been ‘ready’ since February 2017 to announce changes, but issues unrelated to Cuba have intervened,” Kavulich said.”
On Wednesday morning, CNN added more details about this policy shift, reporting that it could happen as early as June, although it reported that “Trump is not expected to reverse all of the Obama changes.” As per CNN:
