“The daughter of Cuba’s vice president has defected from the communist-run island and now lives in Tampa, Florida, the site of the Republican National Convention. Cubans who set foot on US soil are allowed to remain in the country as part of Washington’s ‘wet foot, dry foot’ policy. Cubans intercepted at sea are returned to Cuba. The cause of Diaz’s defection is not yet known, but the newspaper said the incident represents ‘a vote of no confidence in the economic reforms (President Raul) Castro has ordered, and that her father has a mandate to implement.'”
