That\u2019s the reason why, bilateral relations between Cuba and the EU have been so strained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">However, the negotiation on the Political and Cooperation Dialogue Agreement will take place with the Common Position still in force. This issue was not tackled at this stage of negotiations, Leffler added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cThe Common Position is still in force in the EU. We were all aware of the fact that would not change at the beginning of negotiations. We have not discussed the issue of the Common Position at this stage of negotiations\u201d, he assured.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Havana did not mention that restrictive police in its press release on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">By undertaking negotiations aware of the fact that the Common Position is still in force, Cuba showed its pragmatic stand and its confidence in that Aznar\u2019s project would literally die if the European governments don\u2019t make reference to that unilateral instrument and the Political and Cooperation Dialogue Agreement is signed. The EU would have no reason for bringing it back to life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The Common Position states that as long as Cuba does not undertake the changes demanded by the EU, bilateral relations will not be normalized. Yet, Havana has singed agreements with more than half of the European states. Besides, European cooperation has progressed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The French Foreign Secretary, Laurent Fabius, noted during his recent visit to Havana \u2013the first one of a French Minister of Foreign Affairs in 31 years\u2013 that \u201cthere are no irreconcilable differences\u201d, which is a sign of the EU\u2019s interest in having more influence in Cuba.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Shortly after, the Portuguese State Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Luis de Campos Ferreira, also travelled to Cuba and expressed the interest in moving on in terms of bilateral relations in all fronts, considering Cuba is becoming more attractive due to the changes in the economic sector, mostly as to foreign trade and investment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Leffler pointed out that that the future agreement would serve as \u201cplatform for better understanding\u201d differences and for \u201cidentifying steps towards convergence\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In response to a question by the press on preconditions by the EU he stated he said: \u201cwe want to reach an agreement\u201d and \u201cpreconditions and impositions are not positive\u201d, but they did come with \u201cexpectations\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This takes place in the midst of the reforms Cuba is implementing in order to update its economic and social system, an endeavor we are willing to support, Leffler expressed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cGiven the current changes and efforts Cuba is undertaking, the EU has an important role to play, based on its own experiences and opportunities for Cubans and Europeans in strengthening cooperation\u201d, affirmed Brussels\u2019 representative.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The Cuban Foreign Affairs Ministry stated that the next round of negotiations will be held in Brussels and the date will be agreed upon through diplomatic channels,.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Regarding the duration of the process of negotiations, Leffler explained that \u201cit is still too early\u201d to set a date, and made emphasis in that \u201cmost importantly\u201d they need to move on in gaining mutual trust, respect and understanding.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>By: Jorge Luis Rodr\u00edguez Gonz\u00e1lez<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first round of \u201cfruitful\u201d negotiations for a Political and Cooperation Dialogue Agreement for normalizing bilateral relations, which would be the coup de gr\u00e2ce for the Common Position, was concluded in Havana.
