US, Cuba ready for dialogue

(VOVWORLD) - White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Thursday that President Donald Trump is ready to engage diplomatically with Cuba.

Meanwhile, Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel said in an address on state TV Thursday that Cuba is willing to engage in a dialogue with the US on any topic, but without pressure or preconditions.

In a related development, the US government announced Thursday that it will provide 6 million USD in aid to people living in Cuba’s eastern region, which was devastated by Hurricane Melissa late last year. The aid will include food and solar lamps.
