Cuba is not expected to seek to rejoin the Organization of American States anytime soon despite the OAS vote to lift a decades-old suspension, the multinational group’s chief said Monday.
OAS Secretary General Jose Miguel Insulza told reporters it’s likely that “some years” and “a lot of changes in Cuba” will happen before the Cuban government asks to return to the 34-nation organization.
“We hope they will do so, but we don’t think that they will do so in the near future,” Insulza said in Barbados, where he was holding his first official meeting with the country’s new foreign minister.
