Washington D.C. - The Trump administration has stated it will not be holding migration talks with Cuba, putting into question the future of migration relations between the two countries. This announcement comes despite confirmation from the Cuban government that it will continue to receive deportation flights from the U.S., based on a pre-existing accord.
According to the State Department, there are currently no scheduled discussions regarding migration issues with Cuban officials. This decision marks a departure from previous administrations that have engaged in dialogue on this sensitive topic. Cuba, however, has reiterated its commitment to upholding the current agreement regarding the repatriation of Cuban nationals.
The agreement ensures that Cuba will accept Cuban citizens who have been ordered deported from the United States. While the U.S. has ceased migration talks, the existing agreement remains in effect, allowing for continued deportations. The long-term implications of the US's decision to halt talks are yet to be seen, but could potentially impact future migration flows and diplomatic relations between the two nations.
