Havana, June 15 (RHC-ACN)-- U.S. presidential adviser Ben Rhodes has said that the resumption of relations between Cuba and the United States is irreversible and that legislative restrictions can be lifted by Congress.

Rhodes, Deputy National Security Adviser, made these remarks at a forum on cultural diplomacy with Cuba, held at the Meridian International Center in the U.S. capital, Prensa Latina has reported.

According to the presidential adviser, "the crux of the matter is that the U.S. people and the Cuban people overwhelmingly want this to happen."

The White House official recalled that a large majority of the U.S. public, according to a wide range of opinion polls, was in favor of the reestablishment of relationships long before they happened.

Recent polls indicate that seven in 10 U.S. citizens support the lifting of the restrictions imposed by the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on Cuba for over half a century.
