US Reviewing Ability To Restore Internet To Cuba Amid Cut, Says Biden
President says his team 'considering whether we have the technological ability to re instate' internet.
The US is examining whether it can restore internet access in Cuba after the government there cut service amid mass popular demonstrations, President Joe Biden said Thursday.
Biden said his administration is "considering whether we have the technological ability to re-instate" the internet in an effort that would sharply undercut the government's actions.
The president has come under pressure from some Cuban-Americans and US politicians to provide remote internet access to Cuba, which lies about 90 miles (145 kilometers) off the coast of the US state of Florida.
