In addition, it includes an exception that will allow for transactions related to the sending, processing and reception of authorized remittances if otherwise they were restricted by the new measures on transactions with certain identified Cuban military, intelligence and security services. As a result, the ability to send or receive authorized remittances will not be limited.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-US\">However, changes will be introduced in the definition of prohibited members of the Cuban government that can exclude certain persons from receiving remittances from the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-US\">EFE \/ OnCuba<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sending of cash remittances to Cuba from the United States last year reached an estimate of 3.444 billion dollars, approximately 2.7 percent more than in 2015, which supposes a new record, according to a report by the Miami-based The Havana Consulting Group (THCG).
