At last, U.S. President Barack
Obama brings to an end a longstanding policy which gives residency to Cuban
nationals who came to the U.S. illegally.
The 20-year-old strategy permits
Cuban migrants who reached US soil to have legal status and become permanent
residents after one year.
In return, Havana has consented
to begin tolerating Cubans who are dismissed or expelled from the US.
Numerous Cubans in the US say
Washington is compensating an administration which has neglected to address
human rights concerns.
Be that as it may, President
Obama is attempting to proceed with the defrosting of relations with Cuba in
his last days of office.
He stated: "With this change
we will continue to welcome Cubans as we welcome immigrants from other nations,
consistent with our laws."
In an announcement on state TV,
the Cuban government praised the move as "an important step in advancing
relations'' between the US and Cuba.
Thus, it is misty where relations
between the two nations will go now.
Mr Obama's successor,
President-elect Donald Trump, has taken a much harder position and could invert
the change.
As of recently, the supposed
"wet foot, dry foot" strategy has connected exclusively to Cubans, a
huge number of whom reached US soil a year ago, including via land.
Foreigners from different nations
who go to the US without a visa could be captured and ousted.
more to keep individuals from
manhandling the framework - is the best thing to do."
