English/Español: Rubio Welcomes Regulatory Changes to Cuba Sanctions Rules
Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) today issued the following statement after the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) unveiled new regulatory changes to the Cuban Assets Control Regulations (CACR):
“The Trump administration deserves tremendous credit for holding accountable the Cuban regime. By implementing amendments to the CACR, this administration is keeping U.S. dollars out of the pocket of the oppressive Cuban military and its subsidiaries. As the Cuban regime continues to export its destructive communist agenda throughout our hemisphere, and to directly empower the narco-terrorist Maduro regime, the United States must use all tools available under U.S. law to counter the Cuban regime’s deceitful activities to undermine U.S. policy.”
Rubio is the Chairman of the Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.

Washington, D.C. — El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) emitió hoy la siguiente declaración después de que la Oficina de Control de Activos Extranjeros (OFAC) del Departamento del Tesoro revelara nuevos cambios regulatorios al Reglamento de Control de Activos de Cuba (CACR):
“La administración del Presidente Trump merece un gran reconocimiento por responsabilizar al régimen de Cuba. Al implementar enmiendas al CACR, la administración Trump está asegurándose de mantener dólares americanos por fuera de los bolsillos del opresivo ejército cubano y de sus subsidiarios. Mientras Cuba continúa exportando su destructiva agenda comunista en nuestro hemisferio y empoderando directamente al régimen narcoterrorista de Maduro, los Estados Unidos debe utilizar todas las herramientas disponibles bajo las leyes Americanas para contrarrestar las actividades engañosas del régimen cubano para socavar la política de EE.UU.”.
