Thanks to the policy of President Barack Obama from 2011, according to which tourism companies were allowed to obtain licenses for international educational and cultural trips, until recently visa restrictions for entry into Cuba were the least stringent than ever..However, due to the fact that one of the banks responsible for processing such visa applications - the M & T bank in Buffalo - stopped providing services to diplomatic missions, this practice was suspended .At the moment, despite efforts on both sides, a bank that could replace M & T was not found . In this regard, the Diplomatic Mission of the Republic of Cuba to the United States stated: "Despite enormous efforts, the Cuban Interests Division has not been able to find a bank in the United States that could carry out operations on the accounts of the Cuban diplomatic mission. This was due to the tightening of the US economic, commercial and financial blockade against Cuba. " The Cuban Interests Division also noted that consular services will continue to be provided for citizens traveling for humanitarian purposes.
