This is ruffle feathers in Havana, vehemently denied any terrorism. Cuban Government argued that its inclusion in the list has been run by the U.S. government's economic blockade of the Communist Party's 51-year run island is a political vendetta.

There had been between the analyst and others guess that the United States may use the report to take Cuba off the list, and boost efforts to improve relations.
Cuba, headquartered in Washington, senior analyst Philip Peters said: "This is a missed opportunity, there is no doubt,". "It would have been a process has been an important step, it has removed one of the allegations, said the world's people know to be false."
Peters said, removed from the list, the Cuba relations between the two countries will have a profound impact, but will continue to maintain means that half a century of distrust. However, he adds to said the that the, the the wording used in thereof shall be wide open by the State Council, Cuba can be taken in the the the possibility of of the future.
Others praised the move. Rep. Ileana Ross - Lehtinen, a Cuban - the United States of the Republican from Florida, said: keep Cuba on the list of "reiterated that the Castro regime, and has always been, a terrorist supporter and promoter of people, "she said. "
She criticized the authorities the DPRK came back on the line. The reclusive Asian countries in 2008 to take the negotiations on nuclear disarmament, and ultimately ended in failure.
On the the surface of the Cuba is to included in the list, because it is already harboring in between 60 and's and 70's from the 20th century, the Colombia's anti-government armed and the Basque armed molecules as well as the a member of the some aging to the United States militant groups.
Many Cuba watchers had speculated that the time may be ripe to Cuba, to get off the list, in large part because the Cuban Government hosted the peace negotiations between the Colombian rebels and the government of the country, while the Basque militants that have been announced that it a permanent cease-fire.
Colombian and Spanish Governments have not criticized the role played by Cuba in the conflict in recent years, and these two countries as a regular on the island during the vote against the annual United Nations in U.S. economic sanctions vote.
Some American newspaper ran an editorial called on Cuba to be removed from the list. Some people argue that the inclusion of the Caribbean country weakened a means to highlight the major international pariah list, the list.
Used in the get off the list of's one of the the requirements of, the yes, that the the countries has been made public renunciation of terrorism. As Cuba, in April, it sends a message of sympathy to the American people and the U.S. government in the bombings in the Boston Marathon.
Cuba in his message said that it "rejected and its unequivocal condemnation of all acts of terrorism, in any place, in any case, no motive."
Ventrell, annual reports, deleted or added from a list of state-sponsored country never used. Such a decision, may at any time, During the year, for he, it is essential to know said, but added that,, there is no plans to to change the status of of the Cuba in the in the future of in the near.
