Havana, Cuba - Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel has confirmed that his government is in talks with U.S. officials.
According to reports, the discussions are taking place amid the ongoing U.S. embargo on Cuba, which has been in effect since 1960.
The New York Times reported that this is the first time Cuba has acknowledged direct talks with Trump officials. NBC News also confirmed the development, citing sources within Raúl Castro’s inner circle.
Additionally, Miami Herald and Reuters have reported that multiple U.S. officials are engaged in conversations with Cuban representatives.
Details of the discussions remain scarce, but it appears that both sides are exploring potential avenues for improved relations.
Cuba has long sought to normalize its ties with the United States, while Washington has maintained a policy of isolation due to historical tensions and human rights concerns.
The exact nature and scope of the talks are unclear at this time.
