美古接近就恢复商业航班达成协议

2015-12-18来源:VOA

U.S. and Cuban officials say they are nearing agreement on restoring regular commercial flights between the former Cold War foes after more than 50 years.

Delegations from both nations have been meeting in Washington since Monday to finalize the details of a deal they have been working on for several months.

Josefina Vidal, the director of North American affairs at the Cuban Foreign Ministry, told reporters Wednesday in Havana the two sides have made progress on a memorandum of understanding, and are close to making a formal announcement.

A spokesman for the U.S. State Department confirmed that progress had been made, but said the teams were still negotiating.

Several major U.S. airlines have expressed interest in establishing regular flights to Cuba, including American Airlines, Delta, United and JetBlue.
