The end of the Trump tenure has brought no end to the speculation regarding the future of relations between Washington, on the one hand and Venezuela and Cuba, respectively, on the other. These considerations are important not only for their own sakes but also for their implications for the rest of the region, Caracas, Havana and the United States.
Last week, the focus of the US’ attention, appeared to shift, for the time being at least, from Caracas to Havana, where Cuba appears to be searching for any indication that the Biden administration is shifting gears in terms of its bilateral relations with the administration of Miguel Diaz-Canal who has just taken over the reins of office from Raul Castro.
