U.S. Rep Carlos Curbelo (R-FL), who represents a South Florida district with a high Cuban-American population, said that the U.S> government should only ban the visas of Cuban government officials and not “everyday Cubans attempting to visit their families.”
The Cuban government denied its involvement in the attacks and said that this move by the state department is “hasty,” and “will affect bilateral relations, in particular, cooperation on issues of mutual interest and exchanges of a different nature between the two countries.”
