The Obama administration is facing continued opposition from Latin American countries over its isolation of Cuba. On Tuesday, several leaders gathered in Honduras for the annual summit of the Organization of American States and called on the body to reverse its 1962 decision to expel the Cuban government. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the US would consider supporting granting Cuba a path to membership if it carried out several reforms. But several countries say Cuba should be readmitted without preconditions. Cuba has said it wouldn’t accept reentry even if it’s offered, because it no longer considers the OAS a viable grouping.
