BRUSSELS, Belguim (UPI): The EU has drafted a new strategy to increase the prospect of "self-determination" for Cubans living on the communist island, the EU Observer reported.
"It is not the EU's aim to bring about a regime change, the EU nevertheless strongly believes that positive developments in Cuba can be achieved in terms of self-determination through (advances in) democracy, rule of law and fundamental freedoms," the 11-point draft suggests.
Some Spanish EU diplomats are opposed to giving the document official status, the Observer reported Thursday.
The draft calls for a "more active dialogue on Cuba in (EU) trans-Atlantic relations" and with EU allies in Latin America and the Caribbean.
