(VOVworld)- The Cuban Interests Section in Washington announced Monday that consular services in the US will resume until February 17, 2014, after the M&T bank agreed to grant an extension on the closure of the account of the Cuban diplomatic mission in the US. This is the bank’s final extension and extends until March 1, 2014. The Interests Section of Cuba continues to look for a new bank to take over their account and, when this is achieved, will be able to permanently normalize consular services in the US. The Interests Section of Cuba had to cancel all activities after November 26, due to M&T’s decision to halt all services for diplomatic missions in the US. Other banks will not open an account due to US sanctions against Cuba.
