Washington, June 20 (SANA) The US state department on Friday slammed Cuban economic reforms announced the previous day as “superficial smoke signals.”
“These gradual ‘economic reforms’ are modest, long overdue and ultimately superficial smoke signals from the Cuban regime,” a state department spokesperson told AFP.
Cuban lawmakers on Thursday adopted nearly 200 free-market reforms aimed at rescuing the communist island from a severe crisis aggravated by a US oil blockade.
