London, June 7 (RHC)-- A delegation of British businessmen will travel in the coming days to Cuba to explore new business and investment opportunities on the island, has confirmed one of the organizers of the trip.

“We are very excited to see the opportunities, understand the changes introduced by the new Constitution, and with the meetings that we will have as of June 17 with our Cuban partners, the Government and state companies”, Chris Bennett, administrative director of the Cuba Initiative, told Prensa Latina.

He added that the delegation is made up of 28 representatives of the British business sector, and will be led by Lord David Triesman, co-president of the entity that since 1995 has promoted trade relations between Cuba and the UK.

He recalled that the work developed by the Cuba Initiative over the years has resulted in the formation of several joint ventures in the tobacco sector, the introduction of direct flights between London and Havana by the airline Virgin Atlantic, and in projects for the generation of electricity from solar energy and biomass.

The businessman also criticized the recent activation by Washington of Title III of the Helms-Burton Act, which allows Americans to sue companies that invest in nationalized properties in Cuba after the triumph of the 1959 Revolution.
