“Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said he thinks President-elect Donald Trump will make rolling back concessions to the Castro regime a top priority during his presidency.
“I am,” the Florida senator said on NBC’s “Meet The Press” in an interview that aired Sunday when asked if he is convinced the issue is a top priority for the president-elect.
During his presidential campaign, Trump said he would reverse President Obama’s “concessions” to Cuba unless the Castro regime agreed to certain demands.
“All of the concessions that Barack Obama has granted the Castro regime were done through executive order, which means the next president can reverse them,” Trump said during a Miami rally in September. “And that, I will do, unless the Castro regime meets our demands — not my demands, our demands.”
Rubio during the interview that aired Sunday called Fidel Castro’s death a “historical” and “psychological” milestone for many people.
But he noted that “from a practical standpoint, Cuba today is governed exactly the same way as it was 48 hours ago.”
Rubio said he wants to look at all of the changes that were made regarding the relationship between the U.S. and Cuba.
“Our goal is not to punish. Our goal is to figure out what can we do, through U.S. policy, to, number one, look out for the national interest of the United States,” he said.
“And number two, to help create an environment where we are creating the potential for a transition to democratic order in Cuba at some point in the near future.”
