Biden evaluates whether U.S. can “restore” Internet access in Cuba

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – U.S. President Joe Biden said Thursday, July 15, that he is studying whether his government has “the technological capacity to restore” mobile Internet access in Cuba, cut off since the unprecedented anti-government protests last Sunday.

In a press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Biden also said he would like to donate Covid vaccines to Cuba if an international organization would help them to get them to the people and that he does not plan for now to remove the obstacles to the sending of remittances to the island in case they end up benefiting “the regime”.
