US President Joe Biden softened his policy towards Cuba on Monday by reestablishing commercial flights beyond Havana, suspending limits on remittances and authorizing certain types of travel, although tourism to the island will continue to be prohibited. .
Biden’s announcement marks a reversal of some of the policies implemented by his predecessor, Republican Donald Trump (2017-2021), and which marked the end of the “thaw” era, orchestrated by Barack Obama (2009-2017) and his Cuban counterpart, Raúl Castro.
