CUBAN AMERICAN NATIONAL FOUNDATION SEES RENEWED U.S. MIGRATION TALKS WITH CUBA AS POSITIVE STEP

The Cuban American National Foundation (CANF) sees the Obama Administration's move to resume migration talks with the Cuban regime as an opportunity to resolve issues of United States national interest. The possibility of resuming such talks was announced late Friday afternoon.

The CANF believes that among the issues that should be addressed is the present U.S. "wet foot-dry foot" immigration policy which leads to the unfair deportation of Cubans who escape from the Castro dictatorship but are unable to reach the U.S. mainland.

The resumption of migration talks is a key component of the recently published CANF Policy Recommendations which were submitted to the Obama Administration.
