Cuba urged to extend six year refugee airlift
State Department says the United States asked Cuba to continue the Varadero to Miami refugee flights while Havana weighs ending the program. About 100,000 Cubans with U.S. relatives await travel approval as 246,000 Cubans have flown since 1965 under the family reunification understanding. The Swiss Embassy in Havana urged continuation to allow all seeking relatives to depart. The airlift has cost roughly 600 million dollars, with one in nine refugees on relief and only 150 of 12,800 college loans delinquent. Critics say the program burdens Americans and shields Castro from domestic pressure. State Department spokesman Robert J. McCloskey said interruptions will last several weeks starting today.
