On May 28, the Government of the United States finally announced a group of measures aimed at implementing the policy announced on May 16, 2022.  The purpose of this step, according to the text published by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), is to support the private sector in Cuba. These measures are limited in scope and do not target the essence of the blockade against Cuba nor the additional sanctions that make up the maximum pressure policy.  Once again, this US government decision relies on its own distorted view of the Cuban reality, for it intends to artificially separate the private sector from the public sector, when they are both part of Cuba’s entrepreneurial system and the Cuban society as a whole. 

The Embassy of Cuba in Finland accompanied the premiere of the cultural show "Havana Pink", a musical ensemble of Cuban and Latin American dances, made up of an orchestra of eleven musicians, seven dancers and a DJ, according to with its official information. Ambassador Beatriz Parra and Consul Adalberto Ávila were especially welcomed by the group of artists who promote Cuban culture from Finland, under the guidance of the renowned dancer and choreographer Juan Rodríguez Pujals, resident in this country for more than three decades.
