Mr. Speaker. I want to take this opportunity to express my pleasure with the State Departments decision to refuse entrance visas to Cuban officials who were to participate in the Center for Cuban Studies symposium "The U.S. and Cuba: Prospects for Dialogue." Yesterdays Washington Post quoted Fidel Castro attacking the Reagan administration as "fascist." "genocidal." and "covered in blood." Today Castros troops are engaging in battles in Angola. Ethiopia. and other countries in Africa and Latin America. It would be inconsistent and counterproductive to admit these officials to participate in a proCuba propaganda session in the U.S. Capital. This would have been the wrong signal to send to Havana and to those allies we expect to take a tough stand against Cuban adventurism.
