HAVANA, March 30 - RIA Novosti, Oleg Vyazmitinov. Former U.S.
president Jimmy Carter on Wednesday called for the
lifting of trade and economic embargo declared by the U.S. against Cuba, and to exclude Cuba from the list of
countries supporting terrorism.
According to the ex-president, the Helms-Burton Act, passed in 1996 during the presidency of Bill Clinton and tighten the embargo should be completely abolished. Its
adoption and signing was a mistake, the law itself is counterproductive, I'm sure Carter.
"I personally would like to see the Helms-Burton would have been completely abolished. I think that the
adoption and signing of this law was a serious mistake," - said Carter, speaking at a press conference in Havana's Palace of Congresses.
