Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs Roberta S. Jacobson will travel to Cuba on Sunday for the third round of U.S.-Cuba talks.
She'll meet with her Cuban counterpart, Josefina Vidal, director general of the U.S. division of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to continue discussions on reestablishing diplomatic relations and reopening embassies in the two countries. The talks are expected to begin Monday and last until mid-week, officials said.
The two delegations last met in Washington on Feb. 27 and have been in communication on various topics since then. Later this month, for example, a U.S. delegation to discuss a telecom opening is scheduled to head to Havana.
