Donald Trump has rescinded one of his predecessor’s final foreign policy actions in office within hours of assuming the presidency, revoking former President Joe Biden’s delisting of Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism.
The move was part of a sweeping executive order signed by Trump on Monday night that rescinds 78 executive actions taken by Biden over the course of his presidency.
Biden had agreed to take the action as part of a deal brokered by the Vatican, in exchange for Havana freeing dozens of prisoners the United States considered wrongfully detained.
