PRIME MINISTER BROWNE REACTS TO US MOVE TO EASE OIL BLOCKADE ON CUBA

Prime Minister Hon. Gaston Browne has welcomed the United States’ decision to ease the oil blockade on Venezuelan oil exports to Cuba.

The US has said it will allow the resale of some Venezuelan oil to Cuba in a move that could ease the island’s acute fuel shortages.

The move was announced this week as neighbouring countries raised the alarm over a rapidly deteriorating humanitarian situation caused by Washington’s oil blockade.

Prime Minister Browne spoke exclusively with ABS News on Friday.
