From a statement by the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
These measures confirm that there is no will to change the policy of blockade and destabilization against Cuba. When announcing them, United States Government officials made it clear that the blockade will remain intact and that they intend to use the new measures to strengthen the instruments of subversion and interference in Cuba’s internal affairs. This confirms the Foreign Affairs Ministry statement on January 13.No surprises here.
Cuba has always favored exchanges with the American people, its universities, and academic, scientific and religious institutions. All the obstacles to visits by Americans to Cuba have always been, and are still today on the United States government side.
If there is a real interest in expanding and facilitating contacts between our peoples, the United States should lift the blockade and eliminate the prohibition that makes Cuba the only country that Americans cannot travel to.
