Sen. Bill Nelson statement on Cuba sonic attacks

Following is a statement from U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) on the State Department’s response today to continued acoustic attacks on U.S. personnel in Cuba. Nelson spoke today with State Department officials about the response:
“The fact that the Cuban government isn’t protecting the health and wellbeing of our U.S. Embassy personnel is inexcusable. With the loss of hearing and stroke-like-symptoms, the Cuban government owes an explanation and reparations to the families of those injured and must work to ensure these attacks cease immediately. In the meantime, the Cuban Embassy’s staff in Washington, D.C. should be reduced by the same proportionate number of U.S. personnel recalled.”
