Cuba will soon mark arrival of 3 million international tourists

Havana - Cuba’s Minister of Tourism, Manuel Marrero Cruz, says the island will mark this week the arrival of 3 million foreign tourists, despite the hostile measures adopted by the United State that have impacted the sector.
In making the announcement on Twitter, the minister said that the Summer season is going well, reporting a 15% growth of domestic tourism in hotels and other tourism resorts island-wide.
Marrero added that Cuba expects to close the year with 4.3 million international tourists of the 5 million that were originally expected. The reduction is a direct result of the new measures adopted by the Trump Administration against the island.
