    Abstract

    When the Cuban air force shot down two us civilian aircraft on 24 February 1996 it marked the beginning of a toughening of the situation in Cuba. The incident provoked two external reactions: the enactment, on 12 March 1996, of the Helms-Burton law, which reinforces the us embargo on Cuba; and the interruption of negotiations with the European Union (EU) on a possible cooperation agreement. Future relations between the EU and Cuba currently depend on three key factors: the internal situation in Cuba; the impact of the Helms-Burton law on the process of reform in the country and on European economic interests; and progress made in the continuing EU-Cuba dialogue.
