The Biden administration has imposed sanctions on Cuba s police force and two of its leaders following recent protests on the island against the communist government.
U.S. President Joe Biden said Friday before meeting with Cuban American leaders at the White House that more sanctions were coming unless there is some drastic change in Cuba, which I don t anticipate.
Biden also said he had directed the Treasury and State departments to report to him within a month on how to allow Americans to send remittance payments to Cubans.
