Marco Rubio on Tuesday imposed new sanctions on five Cuban entities and one member of the extended Castro family under President Donald Trump's May 1 executive order.
Three of the entities are tied to GAESA, which Rubio called the financial muscle of Cuba's repressive security apparatus, including two financial institutions and one logistics company.
Two other targets generate revenue from Cuba's mineral and metal reserves, including state-owned GeoMinera, broadening the measures beyond GAESA-linked operations.
Rubio also designated the wife of Alejandro Castro Espín, who had already been sanctioned, saying the targets fund, facilitate or benefit from the regime's activities in Cuba and across the hemisphere.
