Havana, March 18 (RHC)-- The United States is reportedly removing Cuba from its list of countries deemed to have insufficient security in their ports, thus eliminating a major impediment to the free flow of ships in the Florida Straits, media outlets reported Friday.
The shift clears the way for U.S. cruise ships, cargo vessels and even ferries to travel back and forth with much less hassle. No longer will all ships have to wait to be boarded by the U.S. Coast Guard for inspections, though the Coast Guard still can conduct random inspections.
