EU Signs Deal with Cuba

Fidel is dead.

The European Union has signed a historic deal with Cuba on political dialogue and cooperation, according to the EU Council. Cuba was the only Latin American country to lack such an agreement with the 28-member bloc.

[...]

Signing the deal was made possible after the EU repealed a 1996 policy last week, which had stated that Cuba must first improve its human rights conditions before a full normalization of ties could happen.

[...]

Cuba had been the only Latin American country which did not have a so-called 'dialogue and cooperation' deal with the EU, covering issues ranging from trade to human rights and migration.

[...]

The deal will be submitted for ratification to the European Parliament, member state national parliaments, and the Cuban National Assembly.

After the ceremony, EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said that EU-Cuba relations will remain unaffected by the presidency of Donald Trump, according to Sputnik.
