Obama: U.S. seeks 'new beginning' with Cuba
Submitted by aimnoodle on Sat, 04/18/2009 - 4:16am.http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2009-04-17-oas-cuba_N.htm?csp=34. Trading their warmest words in a half-century, the United States and Cuba built momentum toward renewed ties on Friday, with President Barack Obama declaring he "seeks a new beginning" — including direct talks — with the island's communist regime.
As leaders of the Americas gathered for a summit in this Caribbean nation, the head of the Organization of American States said he'll ask his group to invite Cuba back after 47 years. In remarks kicking off the weekend gathering of nations — of which Cuba was the only country in the region not represented — Obama repeated the kind of remarks toward the Castro regime that marked his campaign for the presidency.
