CUBA – Cuba’s vice foreign minister has accused the United States of blocking some of Cuba’s top players from participating in the upcoming World Baseball Classic.
It’s the latest in a series of spats over a sport loved by fans in both nations.
Cuba last month asked several players, who in recent years had defected from the Caribbean island. Long-famed for its baseball talent, to represent their home country in the world baseball classic in march 2023.
Others volunteered on their own.
But he said the United States, despite authorizing Cuba’s participation in the classic, had yet to approve U.S.-based Cuban players competing in the event with their home country team.
Vice Foreign Minister, Carlos Fernandez De Cossio says the delayed permit is already a disadvantage for the Cuban team.
