Cuba and U.S. to Resume Talks on Migration and Mail Service

By: Peter Fribert

Cuba has agreed to resume talks with the United States over issues such as migration and mail service between the two countries, two senior State Department officials said to CNN. Currently, mail service between the United States and Cuba goes through different third-party countries. This comes after the Bush Administration in January 2004 suspended any all talks on migration with Cuba and Hillary Clinton currently leaving for El Salvador and Honduras. No date or time has been set for the talks between Cuba and the United States.

A resumption of talks would follow President Obama's easing of family travel and financial restrictions between the U.S. and Cuba.
