Relationship context
Overview
Belgium has supported United Nations General Assembly calls to end the United States embargo on Cuba, reflecting a measure of Belgian government support for engagement with Cuba. Information about concrete Cuban government cooperation specifically with Belgium is insufficient to assess that aspect of the relationship.
Major uncertainties
- The scope of direct Belgian-Cuban government cooperation is unclear.
- Details of Cuban government conduct specifically toward Belgium are limited.
