U.S. Senator Ted Cruz, a Republican from Texas and a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, issued a statement regarding the Biden administration’s recent decision concerning Cuba. The administration decided to remove the Cuban regime from the State Sponsor of Terrorism list.
Senator Cruz expressed his disapproval, stating: “Obama-Biden officials are continuing their legacy of closing out administrations with rank appeasement of the Cuban regime. They push these policies both because they believe in them and to undermine the incoming Trump administration and Republican Congress. These moves do incredible damage to American national security and send a message to our adversaries that they can rely on outgoing Democrat administrations – and wait out pressure from Republican administrations – to continue engaging in terrorism and other aggression against Americans.”
He further criticized the decision by saying: “Today’s decision is unacceptable on its merits. The terrorism advanced by the Cuban regime has not ceased. I will work with President Trump and my colleagues to immediately reverse and limit the damage from the decision.”
