Biden administration sanctions Cuban regime in wake of protests
By Kylie Atwood, Patrick Oppmann and Jennifer Hansler, CNN
The Biden administration sanctioned a key Cuban official and a government special forces unit known as the Boinas Negras for human rights abuses in the wake of historic protests on the island.
President Joe Biden said in a statement that Thursday’s actions were “just the beginning–the United States will continue to sanction individuals responsible for oppression of the Cuban people.”
“I unequivocally condemn the mass detentions and sham trials that are unjustly sentencing to prison those who dared to speak out in an effort to intimidate and threaten the Cuban people into silence,” he said.
