Rubio: Measures to Attract Investment Announced by Cuba are Insufficient

US Senator Marco Rubio described the measures announced by Cuba to attract private investment from the Cuban diaspora as insufficient. He argued that Cuba needs radical change in its political and economic system, as the current situation is dysfunctional. Rubio, of Cuban descent, is a staunch critic of the communist regime in Havana. President Trump stated that he would take action on Cuba, while the Cuban government announced that the diaspora would be able to invest in various sectors in an effort to revitalize its economy, which is in crisis and has been hit by the US oil embargo.
