President Obama doesn’t have plans to travel to Cuba, according to the White House, but that doesn’t mean he is ruling it out.
During the White House Press Briefing on Wednesday, Press Secretary Josh Earnest said that there was “nothing on the schedule” regarding a trip to Cuba.
When pressed by reporters on the issue, Earnest said that he “certainly wouldn’t rule out a presidential visit” pointing out that Obama has visited countries with questionable human rights records such as Burma and China.
Earnest also acknowledged the attraction that existed for American travelers to Cuba.
