Mathias Fekl, France's Secretary of State for Foreign Trade and Tourism Promotion, visited Cuba to express France's full support for lifting the embargo on the island. He emphasized the strategic importance of this move for the future. The US abstained from voting against the UN resolution condemning the embargo for the first time.
