MIAMI, United States (AFP) — United States (US) Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Thursday that Cuba accepted an offer of $100 million in aid but that it was unclear if Washington would agree to Havana’s terms.
Cuba has publicly only said that it was reviewing the offer made by Rubio and tensions have risen after the United States on Wednesday indicted the country’s influential former president Raul Castro on murder charges.
“They say they’ve accepted it. We’ll see if that means it” will work out, Rubio told reporters in his home city of Miami as he left for a NATO meeting in Sweden.
