US to study internet access for Cubans; more sanctions
MEXICO CITY — U.S. President Joe Biden will meet with Cuban-American leaders Friday to discuss the recent social protests in Cuba, the possibility of new sanctions on its government and options for providing internet access to the island’s population. Ron DeSantis, have said the White House should do something to maintain internet service in Cuba, including using balloons as Wi-Fi access points for the population. José Miguel Vivanco, Human Rights Watch’s director for the Americas, said protecting internet access in Cuba “must be one of the top priorities” of the Biden administration. “The growing access to the internet on the island has been a true revolution that has allowed the population to communicate, organize protests and report abuses almost immediately - something that would have been impossible a few years ago,” he said to the AP.
