Cuba says won't move 'one millimeter' to placate enemies in U.S.

HAVANA (Reuters) - Cuba's lead negotiator in talks with Washington told
Reuters on Friday that the island's internal affairs would never be on
the table and Havana would never move "one millimeter" to placate
enemies in the United States.

"Decisions on internal matters are not negotiable and will never be put
on the negotiating agenda in conversations with the United States,"
Josefina Vidal, director of U.S. affairs for the Cuban Foreign Ministry,
said in an exclusive interview.

"Cuba will never do absolutely anything, not move one millimeter, to try
to respond," she said after U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said in
Havana that the U.S. Congress was unlikely to ever lift a punishing
economic embargo on Cuba unless the Communist government improved its
human rights record.
