Abstract:

During the last 18 months the United States government has halted the U.S.-Cuba Enforcement Dialogue and Cooperation, first allegedly due to the health problems experienced by U.S. diplomats in Cuba and then Cuban support for the Maduro administration in Venezuela. On January 16, 2017, the United States and Cuba signed a bilateral Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on Law Enforcement Cooperation. On January 16, Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes traveled to Cuba for official meetings and witnesses the signing of the MOU.^{^[1]}
