Biden Moves in Favor of Cuba
The Biden administration has decided to lift certain restrictions on Cuba. Republicans and even some Democrats have criticized this move. We must pray for wisdom and safety in our dealings with Cuba.
From The Epoch Times. The Biden administration announced that it would be lifting some restrictions on Cuban travel and remittances, drawing criticism from the Senate Foreign Relations chairperson.

“As the Diaz-Canel regime continues its ruthless persecution of countless Cubans from all walks of life for their participation in last year’s pro-democracy uprising, today’s announcement risks sending the wrong message to the wrong people, at the wrong time and for all the wrong reasons,” Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) said Tuesday in a statement.
The White House announced four measures that would ease some of the restrictions on Cuba:
- Reinstating the Cuba Family Reunification Parole Program that will allow a minimum of 20,000 Cubans, not including immediate relatives of U.S. citizens, to immigrate to the United States….
- Expanding authorized commercial and charter flights to locations beyond Havana and reinstating group people-to-people educational travel with certain restrictions. Individual people-to-people educational travel will still be banned.
- Increasing support to independent Cuban entrepreneurs with internet access, cloud technology, programming interfaces, e-commerce platforms, microfinance, and training.
- Removing limits on family remittances and authorizing donative remittances….
Though Menendez did support the reinstatement of the immigration program created in 2007 by President George W. Bush, he was concerned that the policy changes will end up in vain and only help fund the Cuban regime….
“The Biden Administration’s repeated appeasement to the Cuban dictatorship is a betrayal of America’s commitment to human rights and freedom, and to the longsuffering Cuban people who are struggling for a genuine democratic transition,” ten Republican Senate and House members said in a joint statement.
Another widely-concerning issue regarding the new policies is the safety of personnel at the U.S. embassy in Havana as the Biden administration is increasing the staff at the facility….

Lord God, thwart these evil globalist plans that are commencing TODAY. Do not let the power that has been misused via the pandemic continue to be perpetrated. We pray that increased vaccine mandates will not stand. Do not let Biden cede United States health authority to the World Health Organization. Make all ratified, freedom-stealing amendments and treaties, worldwide, become null and void. We pray that all global health magnates would not have consensus in plans they may seek to make. Let all other related, and unrelated, plans harmful to sovereignty and freedom fall apart, fruitless. Annihilate the World Health Organization’s ratified Pandemic Treaty. Preserve our freedoms, worldwide. Destroy the New World Order and the Great Reset
Jesus, we pray that every plan to implement global control, including the plans of the World Health Organization, would be frustrated, destroyed, and come to nothing
Father, we pray that you would stop this action toward Cuba. May your Holy Spirit bless your people there and bring freedom. Touch the hearts of the leaders with your wisdom and a desire to follow Jesus.
