White House plans to remove Cuba's state sponsor of terrorism designation: report
Fox News
The White House reportedly plans to announce that Cuba will no longer be considered a state sponsor of terrorism, though Trump is expected to reverse the move next week.
Cuba was given the designation in January 2021, shortly before Biden took office. At the time, the U.S. Embassy of Cuba accused the country of "repeatedly providing support for acts of international terrorism in granting safe harbor to terrorists."

"The Trump Administration has been focused from the start on denying the Castro regime the resources it uses to oppress its people at home, and countering its malign interference in Venezuela and the rest of the Western Hemisphere," the statement read. "With this action, we will once again hold Cuba’s government accountable and send a clear message: the Castro regime must end its support for international terrorism and subversion of U.S. justice."
