Cuba tightens travel limits for Cuban exiles
Thousands of Cuban-American exiles who welcomed travel relaxations to Cuba face new restrictions as the Cuban government curtails visits. In 1980 travel numbers declined from about 10,000 monthly, with officials predicting fewer than 10,000 exiles may be allowed to travel in the next six months. The shift is seen as a political move amid the transition to Ronald Reagan’s presidency.
